DGS-1100-05PDV2

I've used many switches from the DGS-1100 range including this -08v2, as well as: -05PD, -08P, and -24Pv2. All have a similar webUI and are easy to configure and manage, once you know the default IP is 10.90.90.90. These switches offer line-rate performance on all ports and in my experience are completely reliable and have very low power consumption. The port stats and cable test features are useful to check cabling issues. My go-to switch.

I wanted a small 5-port managed switch initially to monitor network traffic by mirroring the traffic to a monitoring port, and later for use with an OpenBSD-powered Raspberry Pi WireGuard client gateway (see attached pic). The latter uses VLANs to effectively add one or more Ethernet ports to the Raspberry Pi and is easier much higher performance in my experience than using USB Ethernet adaptors. I found WireGuard throughput was limited to 100Mbit/s with an Ethernet adaptor but this rose to 200Mbit/s using VLANs and the D-Link switch. It could be even higher but my Internet connection is limited to 220Mbit/s ! The switch has worked perfectly in both roles and was very easy to set up, the only gotcha being the need to reduce the default bridging VLAN1 to one port only first so as to allow ports to be allocated to the untagged VLANs. I used eth1 as the VLAN trunk link to the RPi, eth2 for the Internet connection and eth3 for the internal network. An added benefit is that the switch is 5V-powered so can be run off a multi-output USB power brick (see attached pic) with the purchase of a separate USB-to-5.5/2.1mm plug (pin +ve) cable.

I bought this to extend our network and add a couple of wireless access points without having to rewire any more than was necessary. The APs are power over ethernet (PoE) and there's no power in that part of the suspended ceiling, so a switch that was PoE itself and could pass that power through to whatever's plugged into it was a big help. Installing this switch was as simple as plugging it in. A moment later, the APs were visible on the network and all was well.

Metal-bodied switch which has all the spanning tree, VLAN, QOS & port monitoring & mirroring features of the similarly priced TP-Link TL-SG108E and Netgear GS108Ev3 & GS308E switches but in a slightly smaller form factor. It also has much more detailed configuration of features (IGMP, STP etc.) at per-port/per-VLAN level and additional control over dedicated management, surveillance & VoIP VLANs.

It came quite quickly and so far has performed very well!

No regrets or disappointments. Exactly what I expected. No more, no less.

Easy to setup and management features are ready to use

Check the manual before buying (or see picture attached). Although it's marketed as 18 Watts max with an 802.3at supply, you cannot connect two class 3 devices, even if they draw less than a combined 18 Watts - and you can't work around this by setting it to class 1/2 either as it'll then likely overload and power off that port if one of them goes over 7 Watts. The Web config portal is also extremely dated and difficult to navigate. Aside from that it's a decent quality switch Be aware when buying a refurbished unit it may not be factory reset and have the previous users passwords locking it.

bonne petite switch, management de base, mais parfait pour reseau de bureau a domicile ou reseau domerstique

Ricco di funzioni consente di gestire reti anche complesse. Difficile da installare se non a rack, non ha attacchi diversi dalle staffe da rack. Un po' caro per numero di porte ed altre caratteristiche.

Flüsterleise und bisher keine Probleme mit dem D-Link DGS-1100.

muy bueno

Works great. Easy to setup and administer.
