D-Link SmartConsole Utility

D-Link SmartConsole Utility is a compact tool designed to help you detect and configure the D-Link Smart Switches. The program allows you to access the configuration of any detected switch and enables you to check the event logs with minimum effort.
Many corporate networks use switches in order to connect multiple computers and facilitate the communication within the LAN. As the switch configuration and maintenance is very important for the overall activity, using an effective tool is a must for all network administrators.
As the name suggests, this tool is designed for the switches produced by D-Link and is optimized for the Web Smart series. Its main purpose is to scan the network for supported devices and monitor them on a regular basis.
The main window displays the list of detected devices and allows you to change the basic settings for each of them. Thus you can easily modify the IP address and the gateway configuration from your desktop. Moreover, you can change the password for any device.
Additionally, you can view the events recorded by a switch in order to detect certain errors and prevent them in the future. An useful feature is the ability to remotely upgrade the firmware for supported devices.
Although the application displays detailed information and allows you to configure the switch, advanced users might need to view all the available settings. Since they are not available in the app interface, the SmartConsole Utility allows you to open the web-based management tool.
Unfortunately, the package does not include any documentation which means that you need to use the program by yourself to test its features. However, if your switch is supported by the app you should find a brief description in the device manual.
Overall, D-Link SmartConsole Utility is an easy to use configuration tool that can come in handy when you want to detect the Web Smart switches from your network.
