Hardware Overview 161
For the N3132PX-ON switch ports 1-24 are 1G interfaces, ports 25-32 are
Multi-Gig interfaces, ports 33-36 are 10G interfaces and ports 37-38 are 40G
interfaces (when a QSFP or a Stacking module is inserted in the back of the
switch).
To remain consistent with prior N-Series devices, CLI and GUI port
references will be non-consecutive when the port type changes. Ports labeled
1-32 on the front panel will be referred to in the UI as Gi1/0/X (where X =1 to
32), ports labeled 33-36 on the front panel will be referred to in the UI as
Te1/0/Y (where Y= 1 to 4) and ports labeled 37-38 on the rear panel/module
will be referred to as either Fo1/1/Z (where Z= 1 to 2) if a QSFP Module is
inserted in the rear of the device or Tw1/1/W (where W=1 to 2) if a Stacking
Module is inserted in the rear of the device.
Console Port
The console port provides serial communication capabilities, which allows
communication using RS-232 protocol. The serial port provides a direct
connection to the switch and allows access to the CLI from a console
terminal connected to the port through the provided serial cable (with RJ45
YOST to female DB-9 connectors).
The console port is separately configurable and can be run as an asynchronous
link from 1200 BAUD to 115,200 BAUD. The
Dell EMC CLI only supports
changing the speed. The defaults are 115,200 BAUD, 8 data bits, no parity, 1
stop bit, and no flow control.
USB Port
The Type-A female USB port supports a USB 2.0-compliant flash memory
drive. The Dell EMC Networking N-Series switch can read or write to a flash
drive with a single partition formatted as FAT-32. Use a USB flash drive to
copy switch configuration files and images between the USB flash drive and
the switch. The USB flash drive may be used to move and copy configuration
files and images from one switch to other switches in the network. The
system does not support the deletion of files on USB flash drives.
The USB port does not support any other type of USB device.
