White Papers

If you had manually configured an Aggregator port to belong to one or more VLANs (non-default) in standalone mode, the VLAN
configuration is retained in stacking mode only on the master switch.
When you reconfigure an Aggregator from stacking to standalone mode:
Aggregator ports that you manually configured for VLAN membership in stacking mode retain their VLAN configuration in
standalone mode.
To restore the default auto-VLAN mode of operation (in which all ports are members of all 4094 VLANs) on a port, enter the
auto vlan command:
Dell(conf)# interface tengigabitethernet 0/2
Dell(conf-if-te-0/2)# auto vlan
The auto vlan command is applicable only in Standalone mode.
To get the default standalone mode configurations:
● Restore to factory default settings.
Where to Go From Here
You can customize the Aggregator for use in your data center network as necessary. To perform additional switch configuration,
do one of the following:
● For remote out-of-band management, enter the OOB management interface IP address into a Telnet or SSH client and log in
to the switch using the user ID and password to access the CLI.
● For local management using the CLI, use the attached console connection.
● For remote in-band management from a network management station, enter the VLAN IP address of the management port
and log in to the switch to access the CLI.
If you installed the Aggregator in a stack, you can configure additional settings for switch stacking
In case of a Dell Networking OS upgrade, you can check to see that an Aggregator is running the latest Dell Networking OS
version by entering the show version command. To download a Dell Networking OS version, go to http://support.dell.com.
Refer to the appropriate chapter for detailed information on how to configure specific software settings.
