D-Link DGS-3100-24P User Manual
Overview
Introducing the D-Link DGS-3100 family of gigabit stackable
switches designed for growing companies looking for
scalability and robust security features. There are four
models in the family including a 24-Port Gigabit Managed
Switch with 4 combo SFP gigabit or 100BASE-FX fiber ports,
a 48-Port Gigabit Managed Switch with 4 combo SFP ports,
and a PoE version of each model. The D-Link DGS-3100
family is equipped with robust features that fulfill the most
demanding network needs in today’s multimedia-intensive
world. Stackable up to 6 units under a single IP, the switches
provide a total of up to 288Gbps aggregated bandwidth,
each with 20Gbps full-duplex of fixed stacking bandwidth.
Designed with efficient QoS features, these D-Link switches
facilitate smooth videos and jitter-free VoIP deployments.
To help secure your network, D-Link implements both the
Safeguard Engine to prevent Denial-of-Service attacks, and
Access Control List to enhance security to your network. The
3100 family is equipped with industry standard management
features such as an easy-to-use web-based administrator
interface and CLI interface. D-Link provides features on an
cost-effective platform that will increase your company’s
productivity and protect your investment.

Stackable up to 6 Units
Each switch in the DGS-3100 family includes two built-in
stacking ports that can provide up to 20Gbps in stacking
backplane. This will enhance your overall network
performance for those switches transmitting large files.
Under stacking mode, the switches are hot-swappable
meaning that in a stack configuration, any of the switches
can be replaced or removed without affecting the network.
There is no need to reconfigure a replacement switch;
simply give the new switch the same stack number ID
as the old switch and the new switch will carry the same
configuration as before. This minimizes the downtime of a
network and maximizes the productivity of your business.
Also, cross stack port mirroring and port trunking are
supported to facilitate network administration.

The D-Link Safeguard Engine and Security
The DGS-3100 incorporates advanced mechanisms to detect
an attack against the central processing unit of the switch
and to take corrective action on the attacking interface. When
a Denial of Service attack is waged against the DGS-3100
switches, the D-Link Safeguard Engine detects the threat
and prevents an overload of the central processor, ensuring
network integrity and helping to maintain open network
bandwidth channels.

In addition, D-Link switches support 802.1x authentication,
which is a secure implementation that allows users to
log onto your network. When used in conjunction with a
RADIUS server, 802.1x requires each workstation attached
to the DGS-3100 to provide a username and password before
gaining access to the local area network. D-Link also utilizes
security features such as the Access Control List, allowing
an administrator to restrict the access of a network through
a variety of means including MAC address, IP, UDP/TCP, and
even VLAN ID. Time-based ACL

Voice and Video Applications
For today’s business, having voice, data, and video on the
same network is common practice. This challenge is met
by the D-Link 3100 family, which supports 802.1p Quality
of Service (Qos) with 4 queues. The administrator can
designate the priority of the traffic based on a variety of
means including IP and MAC address, so that voice data
is always clear and jitter-free. Video traffic can also be
assigned with the same priority. In addition, the D-Link
3100 family provides IGMP Snooping, which allows the
forwarding of multicast packets without increasing network
broadcast congestion. By snooping IGMP registration
information within a frame, a list of workstations who
have joined the multicast group is created. This list then
allows the switch to intelligently forward packets to only
the appropriate member workstations. For IPv6 traffic, the
DGS-3100 supports MLD snooping
