Deployment Guide
21 VxFlex Network Deployment Guide using Dell EMC Networking 25GbE switches and OS9
Note: IP configuration for VLAN IDs 1634 and 1635 is optional. A gateway is not required for the two VxFlex
data networks. If multiple VxFlex data network subnets are required, the SVMs must be modified (see
Appendix B).
4.3 S3048-ON management switch configuration
The following section outlines the configuration commands issued to S3048-ON management switch. The
switches start at their factory default settings per Section 5.1.
Initial configuration involves setting the hostname and enabling LLDP.
enable
configure
hostname S3048-Management
protocol lldp
advertise management-tlv management-address system-description system-name
advertise interface-port-desc
The upstream interfaces, to the S5048F-ON leaf switches, are configured in the next set of commands. Each
interface is added to a port channel.

The downstream interfaces, to the VxFlex Ready Nodes’ (R730xd-1 through R730xd-4) iDRAC interfaces, are
configured in the next set of commands. Each interface is set as a switch port interface.
