T
he DES-3500 series is a member of the D-Link xStack family of next generation switches
that deliver performance, flexible expansion, robust security, multi-layer Quality of Service
(QoS), Power Over Ethernet and redundant power option. Supporting D-Link's Single IP
Management, these switches comprise the workgroup access-layer virtual stack for
seamless integration with the L3 core Gigabit switches to form part of a multi-level network
structured with high-speed backbone and centralized servers.
Cost-Effective Virtual Stack. The DES-3500 series forms an Ethernet workgroup stack with
flexible Gigabit uplinks. Traffic running among units in this virtual stack is through the full-
duplex Gigabit interfaces and your usual network wires, doing away with the costly and
cumbersome stacking cables. Without any stacking cable, cable distance barrier and
physical stacking limitations, your stack can comprise units that are located anywhere on the
network, minimizing the impact of any single point of failure.
Single IP Management. The DES-3500 series simplifies and speeds up your management
tasks, as multiple switches can be configured, monitored and maintained from any
workstation running a web browser through one unique IP address. The stack is managed as
a single object, with all units identified by a single IP address. You can see a Tree View of
the members of the stack and a network topology showing the locations of the units and their
link information. This simple yet powerful web-based management eliminates the need for
you to install expensive SNMP network management software. You can add units to up to 32
switches per stack not limited to any specific models. With embedded Single IP
Management, you can expand your Ethernet stack to include L3 core Gigabit and chassis-
based switches to accommodate your network growth.
Comprehensive Security. The DES-3500 series provides a complete set of security features
for connectivity and access control. This set includes Access Control Lists (ACLs) based on
MAC address, switch port, IP address, and/or TCP/UDP port numbers, 802.1x user
authentication and MAC address control. The DES-3500 also provides central management
for administration access via TACACS+ and RADIUS. Together with network application
control, this security ensures that not only proper user access is served, but malicious traffic
is also prevented from being spread across the network.
Enhanced Network Performance & Availability. The DES-3500 series switches provide
extensive VLAN support including GARP/GVRP, 802.1Q and asymmetric VLAN to enhance
network security and performance. Bandwidth control allows you to set traffic limit for each
port to control the traffic volume from the edge of the network. 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree
with network recovery of less than 15 seconds and redundant power option increase the
reliability and availability of your Virtual Stack. The DES-3500 series implements a robust set
of multi-layer (L2, L3, L4) QoS/CoS features to ensure that critical network services like VoIP,
ERP, Intranet and video conference are served with proper priority. Priority queues for
802.1p/TOS/DiffServ are supported, with classification and marking based on MAC SA/DA,
IP SA/DA, and/or TCP/UDP port numbers.
