Oh, I have exactly one of these models. Discovered a longer time ago that when you enable ssh and look a bit around in config files, the root password is actual hardcoded and clearly written out. That's why I only have it available in a vlan without internet access since long time.
Never dlink again when the thing dies
Just YSK, vlan is not a security measure. It enumerates Ethernet packages with a number different than zero, and you can see all vlans if the network card decides it. So if some other device on your net is compromised, there is a chance traffic to your vulnerable box can be too. ( it gets a little more complicated with vlan aware switches in the middle. But not impossible)
Edit: BTW I feel you I too have a bit of older hardware thats on their own net where I just hope nothing bad happens til I come around to replacing it...
