Overview
Thank you for purchasing a Force10 Networks switch!
This S25P Quick Reference document is printed and included in the S25P shipping box to provide you with
a quick way to access basic installation and configuration instructions and to tell you how to get more
information.
In addition to the S25P with its SFTOS operating system loaded in its default configuration, the shipping
box also contains two AC power cords, a DB9-to-RJ45 connector, and a small bag with rack-mounting
screws, plastic feet for table-top mounting, and the S-Series Documentation CD-ROM (hereafter simply
referred to as the “S-Series CD-ROM”). Other purchased components are shipped separately.
The hardware installation section (Installing the Hardware on page 6) in this guide contains a subset of the
information in Installing the S25P System, a book stored as a PDF both on the S-Series CD-ROM and at
the iSupport website.
The software configuration section here (see Basic Software Configuration on page 12) contains a subset
of the configuration information in
the SFTOS Configuration Guide, which is also on the S-Series
CD-ROM and at the iSupport website.
In fact, all of the S-Series documentation that is on the S-Series CD-ROM is also available on the iSupport
website.
For more information about the S-Series CD-ROM, see the next section, Contents of the S-Series
Documentation CD-ROM on page 5.
For more information about the iSupport website (login required), see The iSupport Website on page 18.
Note: This S25P Quick Reference is specific to SFTOS Version 2.5.1 for the S25P.
