ell EMC Networking - Deploying VMware vSAN with OS10 Enterprise Edition | version 1.0
1 Introduction
The Dell EMC OS10 Enterprise Edition operating system is a native Linux-based network operating system
that has a wholly disaggregated software architecture. OS10 decouples the base software from the layer 2
and layer 3 protocol stack and services and brings forth the ability for open programmability and portability.
This document outlines the use of OS10 Enterprise Edition running on Dell EMC Networking S4100-ON
series switches.
1.1 Dell EMC Networking S4100-ON switch series
The Dell EMC Networking S4100-ON switch series (S4148U, S4148F, S4148FE, S4148T, S4128F, S4128T)
is a 1RU (Rack-Unit) high-density 1/10/25/40/50/100GbE, top of rack switch. S4148-ON switches are leaf
switches running OS10 in this deployment guide. The S4148-ON switch operates with up to 48 dual-speed,
1/10GbE SFP+ (S4148T-ON with BaseT) ports, and four 100GbE QSFP28 ports. This switch uses non-
blocking and cut-through switching architecture to provide ultra-low-latency performance.
Note: Switch-port profiles determine the interfaces that are available.
