8.2 Environment Three: Configuring the Dell Networking S4810
In this section, the S4810 switches are configured (Figure 43). The configuration steps outlined below
are repeated on both IOMs. When validating the configurations in this guide the following management
IP addresses (Table 10) were used.
Management IP addresses

S4810-1
172.25.190.37
255.255.0.0
S4810-2
172.25.190.38
255.255.0.0
The VLT active/active capabilities of the S4810 and the IOM are the same. Therefore, the
configurations should look and behave in the same manner.
