D-Link DES-2218 manual Syslocation string

Page 78

Takes string as the System Contact, corresponding to the SNMP MIB II variable sysContact. This field is used to give the name and contact information for the person responsible for administering the switch. The string can be up to 64 characters long.

♦syslocation string

Takes string as the System Location, corresponding to the SNMP MIB II variable sysLocation. This field is used to indicate the physical location of the switch for administrative purposes. The string can be up to

64characters long.

♦baud-rate n

Sets the console port transmission rate used when the port is being used in out-of-band mode. Legal values for the parameter n are: 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, and 38400.

♦image-file string

Takes string (which may be up to 64 characters long) as the filename on the TFTP server of the image file to be used. When the switch boots, it will load the given image file from the server and execute it. This command may be used to update the switch’s software when a new version is available from D-Link.

♦ip-netmask mask

Uses mask as the network mask for the local network. The mask should be in the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where each xxx is a number between 0 and

255.For a class C network with no subnetting, the netmask should be 255.255.255.0.

♦ip-default address

Uses address as the switch’s IP address. The address should be in the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where each xxx is a number between 0 and 255.

DES-2218 specifications

The D-Link DES-2218 is a robust and versatile 18-port Layer 2 managed switch designed for businesses seeking to enhance their network performance and reliability. With a combination of advanced features and reliable technologies, the DES-2218 offers a powerful solution for managing network traffic efficiently.

One of the standout features of the DES-2218 is its advanced Layer 2 switching capabilities. The switch supports a variety of network protocols, making it suitable for various business applications. The 18 ports, which include 16 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet ports and 2 Gigabit SFP slots, provide flexibility for both copper and fiber optic connections, allowing organizations to implement a tailored network infrastructure according to their specific needs.

The switch also incorporates VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) support, enabling the segmentation of traffic for improved security and performance. This feature allows network administrators to isolate sensitive data and create efficient, manageable traffic flows that enhance overall network efficiency. Furthermore, the DES-2218 supports 802.1Q VLAN tagging, which is essential for implementing VLANs in larger, more complex networks.

In addition to VLAN capabilities, the DES-2218 offers robust Quality of Service (QoS) features. These QoS functionalities prioritize network traffic, ensuring that critical applications receive the bandwidth they need for optimal performance. This is particularly beneficial for businesses that rely on video conferencing, VoIP services, or other real-time communications.

Another notable characteristic of the D-Link DES-2218 is its support for network management protocols such as SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), RMON (Remote Monitoring), and WEB Management. These features enable administrators to remotely monitor and manage the network, ensuring that any potential issues can be addressed before they impact business operations.

Security is another priority in the design of the D-Link DES-2218. The switch supports various security features, including port security and MAC address filtering, which help protect the network from unauthorized access and ensure that only legitimate users can connect.

Overall, the D-Link DES-2218 is an feature-rich managed switch that combines essential technologies and characteristics to deliver a reliable networking solution for businesses of all sizes. With its extensive management capabilities, enhanced security measures, and advanced VLAN and QoS support, the DES-2218 is an ideal choice for organizations looking to optimize their network performance.
