In order to login and configure the switch via an Ethernet connection, the PC must have an IP address in the
same subnet as the switch. For example, if the switch has an IP address of
10.90.90.90
, the PC should have
an IP address of
10.x.y.z
(where x/y is a number between 0 ~ 254 and z is a number between 1 ~ 254), and
a subnet mask of
255.0.0.0
. There are two ways to launch the Web-based Management, you may either click
the Web Access button at the top of the SmartConsole Utility or open the web browser and enter
10.90.90.90
(the factory-default IP address) in the address bar. Then press <Enter>.

D-Link Network Assistant (DNA)
The D-Link Network Assistant (DNA), included in the installation CD, is a program that allows administrators
to quickly discover all D-Link smart switches and D-Link Discover Protocol (DDP) supported devices (for a
list of supported models, refer to the
D-Link Network Assistant (DNA) User Guide
), that are in the same
subnet as the PC, collect traps and log messages, and provide quick access to basic configurations of the
switch. This tool is only for computers running Windows 7, Vista, XP, or 2000 on both 32/64bit systems.
There are two options for the installation of the DNA; one is through the Autorun program on the installation
CD and the other is manual installation.
