Initial Configuration of the Switch

This section describes how to initially configure the Dell VRTX 1Gb and

10Gb switch modules.

NOTE: Before proceeding further, read the latest documentation and release notes

for this product, which can be downloaded from the Dell Support website at

dell.com/support.

To logon to the switch after it is inserted into the chassis, perform the

following:

Turn on the chassis. To display the IP address configured for the out-of-

band interface, go to the CMC GUI, options: I/O Module Overview >

Setup. See the CMC User Guide for further information on how to access

the CMC GUI.

Log on to the switch in one of the following ways:

– Establish a Telnet session to the out-of-band IP address obtained in

the last step, and log on with the default user/password: root/calvin.

Continue managing the switch through the CLI (see the Dell

PowerEdge VRTX Switch Modules, R1-2401 and R1-2210 CLI

Reference Guides).

– Open a GUI session from the CMC GUI, options: I/O Module

Overview > Properties > Launch IOM GUI. In the Login menu,

select either Basic or Advanced mode and use the default

user/password: root/calvin. Continue managing the switch through

the Network Administrator. See the Dell PowerEdge VRTX Switch

Modules, R1-2401 and R1-2210 User Guide.

– Connect to the IOM serial interface through the CMC. For that, use

the CMC command: connect switch. See the CMC Command Line
