from the Dell Support website at support.dell.com.

NOTE: We recommend that you obtain the most recent version of the user documentation from the Dell

Support website at support.dell.com.

Connecting the Terminal to the Switch

To monitor and configure the switch via serial console, use the console port on the rear of the

switch to connect it to a VT100 terminal or to a computer running VT100 terminal emulation

software. The console port is implemented as a data terminal equipment (DTE) connector.

The following is required to use the console port:

• VT100-compatible terminal or a desktop or a portable system with a serial port, running

VT100 terminal emulation software.

• A serial cable (provided) with a RJ-45 connector for the console port and DB9 connector for

the terminal.

Perform the following tasks to connect a terminal to the switch console port:

1

Connect the DB9 connector on the serial cable to the terminal running VT100 terminal emulation

software.

2

Configure the terminal emulation software as follows:

a

Select the appropriate serial port (serial port 1 or serial port 2) to connect to the console.

b

Set the data rate to 9600 baud.

c

Set the data format to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity.

d

Set the flow control to none.

e

Set the terminal emulation mode to

VT100

.

f

Select Terminal keys for Function, Arrow, and Ctrl keys. Make sure that the setting is for

Terminal keys (not Microsoft

®

Windows

®

keys).

NOTE: When using HyperTerminal with Microsoft Windows 2000, make sure that you have Windows

2000 Service Pack 2 or later installed. With Windows 2000 Service Pack 2, the arrow keys function

properly in HyperTerminal's VT100 emulation. Go to www.microsoft.com for more information on

Windows 2000 service packs.

3

Connect the RJ-45 connector on the cable directly to the switch console port. The

PowerConnect 8024 and 8024F console port is located on the rear panel, above the RJ-45

out-of-band port, as shown in Figure 3.

10 Getting Started Guide

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

Figure 3. Connecting to the Console Port

The RJ-45 port below the Console port is for out-of-band management.

Booting the Switch

1

Make sure that the switch console port is connected to a VT100 terminal or VT100 terminal

emulator via the RJ-45 to DB9 female cable.

2

Locate two AC power receptacles.

3

Deactivate the AC power receptacle.

4

Connect both of the switch power supplies to the AC receptacles.

5

Activate the AC power receptacles.

When the power is turned on with the local terminal already connected, the switch goes through a

power-on self-test (POST). POST runs every time the switch is initialized and checks hardware

components to determine if the switch is fully operational before completely booting. If POST

detects a critical problem, the program flow stops. If POST passes successfully, valid firmware is

loaded into RAM. POST messages are displayed on the terminal and indicate test success or failure.

The boot process runs for approximately 60 seconds.

Initial Configuration

NOTE: The initial simple configuration procedure is based on the following assumptions:

• The PowerConnect switch was never configured before and is in the same state as when you

received it.

• The PowerConnect switch booted successfully.

• The console connection was established and the Dell Easy Setup Wizard prompt appears on

the screen of a VT100 terminal or terminal equivalent.

The initial switch configuration is performed through the console port. After the initial

configuration, you can manage the switch either from the already-connected console port or

remotely through an interface defined during the initial configuration.

NOTE: The switch is not configured with a default user name and password.

NOTE: All of the settings below are necessary to allow the remote management of the switch through

Telnet (Telnet client) or HTTP (Web browser).

Console Port

Getting Started Guide 11

Before setting up the initial configuration of the switch, obtain the following information from

your network administrator:

• The IP address to be assigned to the management VLAN.

• The IP subnet mask for the network.

• The IP address of the management VLAN default gateway.

Management Interface and Out-of-Band Interface

The front panel of the PowerConnect 8024 and 8024F switches contains multiple 10-Gigabit

Ethernet ports for data traffic. Additionally, you can use any port on the front panel as the

in-band management interface. The rear panel contains a Gigabit Ethernet port for out-of-band

(OOB) management. The OOB port is located below the console port.

The Dell Easy Setup Wizard configures network information for the in-band management

interface. To use the OOB interface for management, use the Command Line Interface (CLI)

to configure network information. You can assign a static IP address and subnet mask or enable

DHCP and allow a DHCP server to assign the information automatically.

NOTE: DHCP can be enabled on either the management interface or the OOB interface, but not both.

DHCP is enabled by default on the management interface. To use DHCP on the OOB interface, you must

first disable it on the management interface and then enable it on the OOB interface.

See the PowerConnect 8024 and 8024F CLI Reference Guide for information about the

commands to use to configure the OOB interface.

Initial Configuration Procedure

You can perform the initial configuration using the Dell Easy Setup Wizard, or by using the

Command Line Interface (CLI). The Setup Wizard automatically starts when the switch

configuration file is empty. You can exit the wizard at any point by entering [ctrl+z], but all

configuration settings specified will be discarded (the switch will use the default values).

NOTE: If you do not run the Easy Setup Wizard or do not respond to the initial Easy Setup Wizard prompt

within 60 seconds, the switch enters CLI mode. If the switch is connected to your network through the

management interface when you power it on for the first time, it attempts to acquire an IP address from a

DHCP server. If no DHCP server responds to the request within 50 seconds, the switch uses 192.168.2.1 as

the default IP address on the management VLAN. To view the management interface IP address, enter

the

enable command to enter Privileged EXEC mode, and then enter show ip interface

management

. There is no default IP address for the OOB interface.

12 Getting Started Guide

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

For more information on CLI initial configuration see the

User Guide

. This

Getting Started Guide

shows how to use the Setup Wizard for initial switch configuration. The wizard sets up the following

configuration on the switch:

• Establishes the initial privileged user account with a valid password. The wizard configures

one privileged user account during the setup.

• Enables CLI login and HTTP access to use the local authentication setting only.

• Sets up the IP address for the management VLAN.

• Sets up the SNMP community string to be used by the SNMP manager at a given IP address.

You may choose to skip this step if SNMP management is not used for this switch.

• Allows you to specify the management server IP or permit management access from all IP

addresses.

• Configures the default gateway IP address.

Example Session

This section describes an Easy Setup Wizard session. The following values are used by the example

session:

• The SNMP community string to be used is

public

• The network management system IP address is

192.168.2.1

.

• The user name is

admin

, and password is

admin123

.

• The IP address for the management VLAN is

192.168.2.1:255.255.255.0

.

• The default gateway is

0.0.0.0

.

The setup wizard configures the initial values as defined above. After you complete the wizard, the

switch is configured as follows:

• SNMPv1/2c is enabled and the community string is set up as defined above. SNMPv3 is

disabled by default.

• The admin user account is set up as defined.

• A network management system is configured. From this management station, you can access

the SNMP, HTTP, and CLI interfaces. You may also choose to allow all IP addresses to access

these management interfaces by choosing the (0.0.0.0) IP address.

• An IP address is configured for the default management VLAN (1).

• A default gateway address is configured.

NOTE: In the example below, the possible user options are enclosed in [ ]. Also, where possible, the

default value is provided in { }. If you press <Enter> with no options defined, the default value is accepted.

Help text is in parentheses.

Getting Started Guide 13

The following example contains the sequence of prompts and responses associated with running an

example Dell Easy Setup Wizard session, using the input values listed above.

After the switch completes the POST and is booted, the following dialog appears:

Unit 1 - Waiting to select management unit)>

Applying configuration, please wait ...

Welcome to Dell Easy Setup Wizard

The Setup Wizard guides you through the initial switch

configuration, and gets you up and running as quickly as possible.

You can skip the setup wizard, and enter CLI mode to manually

configure the switch. You must respond to the next question to run

the setup wizard within 60 seconds, otherwise the system will

continue with normal operation using the default system

configuration.Note: You can exit the setup wizard at any point by

entering [ctrl+z].

Would you like to run the setup wizard (you must answer this

question within 60 seconds)? [Y/N] y

Step 1:

The system is not setup for SNMP management by default. To manage

the switch using SNMP (required for Dell Network Manager) you can

. Set up the initial SNMP version 2 account now.

. Return later and setup other SNMP accounts. (For more

information on setting up an SNMP version 1 or 3 account, see

the user documentation).

Would you like to setup the SNMP management interface now? [Y/N] y

To setup the SNMP management account you must specify the

management system IP address and the "community string" or

password that the particular management system uses to access the

switch. The wizard automatically assigns the highest access level

[Privilege Level 15] to this account. You can use Dell Network

Manager or other management interfaces to change this setting and

to add additional management systems later. For more information

on adding management systems, see the User’s Guide.

14 Getting Started Guide

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

To add a management station:

Please enter the SNMP community string to be used [public]:public

NOTE: If it is configured, the default access level is set to the highest available access for the SNMP

management interface. Initially only SNMPv1/2c will be activated. SNMPv3 is disabled until you return to

configure security access for SNMPv3 (e.g. engine ID, view, etc.).

Please enter the IP address of the Management System (A.B.C.D) or

wildcard (0.0.0.0) to manage from any Management Station

{0.0.0.0}: 192.168.2.100

Step 2:

Now we need to setup your initial privilege (Level 15) user

account. This account is used to login to the CLI and Web

interface. You may setup other accounts and change privilege

levels later. For more information on setting up user accounts and

changing privilege levels, see the user documentation.

To setup a user account:

Please enter the user name. [admin]:admin

Please enter the user password:********

Please reenter the user password:********

Step 3:

Next, an IP address is setup. The IP address is defined on the

default VLAN (VLAN #1), of which all ports are members. This is the

IP address you use to access the CLI, Web interface, or SNMP

interface for the switch. Optionally you may request that the

system automatically retrieve an IP address from the network via

DHCP (this requires that you have a DHCP server running on the

network).

To setup an IP address:

Please enter the IP address of the device (A.B.C.D) or enter "DHCP"

(without the quotes) to automatically request an IP address from

the network DHCP server. [192.168.2.1]:192.168.2.1

Please enter the IP subnet mask (A.B.C.D or /nn).

[255.255.255.0]:255.255.255.0

Getting Started Guide 15

Step 4:

Finally, setup the default gateway. Please enter the IP address of

the gateway from which this network is reachable. [0.0.0.0]:

This is the configuration information that has been collected:

SNMP Interface = "public"@192.168.2.100

User Account setup = admin

Password = ********

Management IP address = 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway = 0.0.0.0

Operation Mode = Normal

Step 5:

If the information is correct, please select (Y) to save the

configuration, and copy to the start-up configuration file. If the

information is incorrect, select (N) to discard configuration and

restart the wizard: [Y/N] y

Thank you for using Dell Easy Set up Wizard. You will now enter CLI

mode.

Advanced Configuration

This section provides summary information about such common tasks as:

• Retrieving an IP Address From a DHCP Server

• Security Management and Password Configuration

NOTE: For detailed information on all the CLI commands available for the 8024 and 8024F M6348

switches, see the CLI Reference Guide.

Retrieving an IP Address From a DHCP Server

When using the DHCP protocol to retrieve an IP address, the switch acts as a DHCP client.

To retrieve an IP address from a DHCP server, perform the following steps:

1

Select and connect any port to a DHCP server or to a subnet that has a DHCP server on it, in

order to retrieve the IP address.

NOTE: You do not need to delete the switch configuration to retrieve an IP address for the D HCP server.

2

Enter the following commands to use the selected port for receiving the IP address.

console#config

console(config)#ip address dhcp

The interface receives the IP address automatically.

16 Getting Started Guide

Security Management and Password Configuration

System security is handled through the AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting)

mechanism that manages user access rights, privileges, and management methods. AAA uses both

local and remote user databases. Data encryption is handled through the SSH mechanism.

The system is delivered with no default password configured; all passwords are user-defined. If a

user-defined password is lost, a password recovery procedure can be invoked from the Boot menu.

The procedure is applicable for the local terminal only and allows a one-time access to the switch

from the local terminal with no password entered.

Getting Started Guide 17

Configuring Security Passwords

The security passwords can be configured for the following services:

• Console

• Telnet

• SSH

•HTTP

•HTTPS

NOTE: When creating a user name, the default priority is "1", which allows access but not configuration

rights. A priority of "15" must be set to enable access and configuration rights to the switch.

Configuring an Initial Console Password

To configure an initial console password, enter the following commands:

console(config)#aaa authentication login default line

console(config)#aaa authentication enable default line

console(config)#line console

console(config-line)#login authentication default

console(config-line)#enable authentication default

console(config-line)#password secret123

• When initially logging on to a switch through a console session, enter

secret123

at the

password prompt.

• When changing a switch’s mode to enable, enter

secret123

at the password prompt.

Configuring an Initial Telnet Password

To configure an initial Telnet password, enter the following commands:

console(config)#aaa authentication login default line

console(config)#aaa authentication enable default line

console(config)#line telnet

console(config-line)#login authentication default

console(config-line)#enable authentication default

console(config-line)#password pass1234

• When initially logging onto a switch through a Telnet session, enter

pass1234

at the

password prompt.

• When changing a switch mode to enable, enter

pass1234

.
