Management Options

This switch can be managed through the Web User
Interface (Web UI) or D-Link Network Assistant (DNA)
utility.
If you wish to manage a single D-Link switch, the Web UI
may be the best option. Each switch must be assigned its
own IP address, which is used for communication with the
management PC. However, if you wish to manage multiple
D-Link switches, DNA may be the best option. You don't
need to change the IP address of your PC and it makes
the initial setup of multiple switches easy. Please refer to
the following installation instructions to get started with the
Web UI and DNA.

1. Web User Interface

After a successful physical installation, you can configure
the Switch, monitor the LED panel, and display statistics
graphically using a web browser, such as Internet Explorer,
Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera or Safari.
The equipment you need to begin the web configuration
of your device:
• A PC with a RJ-45 Ethernet connection
• A standard Ethernet cable
1. Connect the Ethernet cable to any of the ports in front
panel of the switch and to the Ethernet port on the PC.
2. Configure the PC's IP address to be in the network
segment as the switch. The switch's default IP
address is 10.90.90.90 with a subnet mask of
255.0.0.0 and a default gateway of 0.0.0.0.
For example, to connect to the switch using the default
settings, your PC should have an IP address in the
range: 10.0-255.0-255.1-254 and a subnet mask of
255.0.0.0.
3. Open the web browser and enter 10.90.90.90 in the
address box. Then press the Enter key
4. Log in to the switch. When the authentication window
appears, enter the password 'admin'. Press OK to enter
the main configuration window.

2. D-Link Network Assistant
D-Link Network Assistant (DNA) is a program that is used
to discover switches which are in the same Layer 2 network
segment as your PC. You can download the DNA App
from the Chrome Web Store and install it in a Chrome web
browser.
1. Go to the Chrome web store and search for 'D-Link
Network Assistant' to download the App. This can be
reached at the following URL:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore
2. Click 'ADD TO CHROME' button on the right hand side of
the search results.
3. Click 'Add app' button in the pop up window to install the
D-Link Network Assistant in Chrome.
4. When the installation process completes:
(Option 1) Click the 'LAUNCH APP' button in the upper-right
corner of the window to start DNA.
(Option 2) Click the 'Apps' icon in the upper-left corner of
the Chrome browser and click 'DNA' in the Apps list to start
DNA.
Note: for managed switches, users need to enable D-Link
Discovery Protocol (DDP) and create a user name and
password to be able to log in to DNA.
