23 Dell EMC Networking FCoE-to-Fibre Channel Deployment with S4148U-ON in F_port Mode | version 1.0
5 S4148U-ON switch configuration
This section covers steps to configure the S4148U-ON leaf switches running OS10.
5.1 Prepare switches
5.1.1 Factory default configuration
The configuration commands in the sections that follow begin with S4148U-ON switches at their factory
default settings. Dell EMC Networking switches running OS10 can be reset to their default configuration as
follows:
OS10# delete startup-configuration
Proceed to delete startup-configuration [confirm yes/no(default)]:y
OS10# reload
System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]:n
Proceed to reboot the system? [confirm yes/no]:y
The switch reboots to its factory default configuration. Repeat on the second S4148U-ON switch.
Note: Dell EMC Networking OS10 switches at their default settings have Telnet disabled, SSH enabled, and
the OOB management interface configured to get its IP address via DHCP. The default username and
password are both admin. Dell EMC recommends changing the admin password to a complex password
during the first login.
5.1.2 Set switch port profile
A switch port profile determines the enabled front-panel ports and supported breakout modes on Ethernet and
unified ports. Changing the profile removes the existing switch configuration, so the switch port profile is
configured first. Switch port profile-3 is used in this topology to enable four 100GbE ports on each leaf switch.
These ports are used for spine switch and VLTi connections.
Note: See OS10 Enterprise Edition User Guide Release 10.4.0E(R3) for switch-port profile options and
details.
To change the switch-port profile from its current setting:
OS10# configure terminal
OS10(config)# switch-port-profile 1/1 profile-3
Warning: Switch port profile will be applied only after a save and reload.
All management port configurations will be retained but all other
configurations will be wiped out after the reload.
OS10(config)# exit
OS10# write memory
OS10# reload
