6.6 Connecting non-MX Ethernet Devices to the fabric
As of SmartFabric OS10.5.0.1 and OME-M 1.10.00, PowerEdge MX Ethernet switches allow the connection
of non-MX devices such as rack servers to the fabric as long as that device provides a physical interface
supported by the switch. Once connected, VLANs must be assigned to each port that the device is connected
to. This capability does not allow non-MX devices to support FCoE.
To connect a non-MX device to a switch running in SmartFabric mode, perform the following steps:
1. Open the OME-M Console. To Configure Breakout on port-group, refer to Section 4.4.
2. Once the Breakout on Port-group is done, select the port. Click Edit VLANs. Make sure the port is
not in use for any other purpose.
3. Click Edit VLANs and select Default VLAN 1 as shown as Untagged Network in the example below
and choose any other VLAN for Tagged Network.
Choose VLANs under Edit VLANs
4. Click Finish.
5. Repeat these steps for any other port or IOM
6.7 Delete SmartFabric
To remove the SmartFabric using the OME-M console, perform the following steps:
1. Open the OME-M console.
2. From the navigation menu, click Devices > Fabric.
3. Select SmartFabric.
4. Click the Delete button.
5. In the delete fabric dialog box click Yes.
All participating switches reboot to Full Switch mode.
