I removed a switch from a 3 switch stack and was able to configure it. How do I remove the ports from the remaining 2 switch stack?
Removing Powerconnect 5548p from stack
are symptoms where Windows would not keep up, get a new/updated MAC address ab/normal?
hi eveyone,
on PC62xx I have an IP which would hop (sometimes, a HA) between two MACs and I have a problem with all Windows clients which insist (even after arp -d xx) on show/keeping old(even the MAC is physically off-line) last MAC but not the new one, current.
A few Linux boxes would be ok (target IP/MAC is also Linux).
Is there anything the switch could do to troubleshoot it, help it?
many thanks,
L.
Dell Force10 S4810 Endless Looping
So I have a Dell Force10 S4810 switch that will not completely boot. The only thing that I can get into is the uBoot environment. I have tried TFTP booting a known good FTOS image but the same issue still persists.
The system reboots itself after this line

Custom OS
This is a question about the X-series and N-series Dell switches.
http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/networking-x-series/pd
http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/networking-n1500-series/pd
1. What CPU's do these switches use?
2. Does the BIOS support booting from an external media?
I want to install a custom OS on my switches. I see that these series of switches have a console and usb port with firmware configuration support. According to CumulusNetworks this is supported with the S-series switches, but it's unclear what other Dell switches support this. Thanks!
OpenManage Network Manager with N2048
Hi,
We are still in staging stage, but we have purchased N2048 stacks and OMNM 25 nodes license.
Currently the OMNM is running in trial license, but we are unable to monitor the performance for N2048 even through the switches are discovered successfully.
Performance assessment showing " No Data is available to display"
We are using SSH/telnet and SNMP as authentication method.
Any configuration required to polling data from the N2048?
we need to show top CPU, interface error, bandwidth etc in the OMNM.
Jumbo frames PowerConnect 2848
How to set jumbo frames at a port on a powerconnect 2848 ? there is a option to enable it at "system -> Advanced Setting -> General settings -> Jumbo frames [enable] "
But how can I enable it on the port ?
Most commands on CLI don't work on powercennect 2848.

(jerky) routing via PC62xx
hi there,
I have a working routing to nodes in a vlan:
Tnode -> Astack <= non-stack-link => Bstack -> a node in Xvlan
I ssh to a node in Xvlan in Bstack via Astack' Xvlan IP and it seems to work, however, I see the traffic is being weird - it would delay, stall. I see, often, ssh console would not respond for a few seconds, eg. key strokes would be delayed.
What could be the cause?
I should add that nodes in the Tvlan in Bstack do not seem to "misbehave" this way when sshed to from Tnode in Astack. (so no IP routing here).
b.w.

2 VLANs, 1 Port
All,
Thank you in advance for taking the time to look at my post.
I was wondering if anyone had a solution to a problem I am having. I have multiple PCs on a physical network that are connected via an IP phone at their respective locations. Phones and PCs currently reside on the 192.168.100.x network, so all of their traffic is routed the same direction.
I want to be able to place the PCs on a different network (10.10.100.x) and have their traffic sent a different direction while remaining on the same physical link. I was hoping there was a way to take the traffic from the phone and PC and route it accordingly using Layer 3 functionality and VLANs on a PowerConnect 6248. Is this even possible when both devices communicate over the same physical ports? I have this grand idea in my mind, which may be clouding my judgment on the matter.
Any input is appreciated.

Help with access lists (Dell Networking N4000)
We have a N4032F and I want to create an access list but I'm having a bit of trouble with the config.
So basically the architecture is described as follows:
N4032F (10.16.4.6)
VLAN 10 (192.168.1.0/24)
VLAN 20 (192.168.2.0/24)
VLAN 70 (192.168.7.0/24)
VLAN 80 (192.168.8.0/24)
I want to restrict VLAN 70 from communicating at all with the rest of the VLANs but still allow traffic from the outside network (10.0.0.0/8).
Here is the section of the config that I tried... it works in that it doesn't allow traffic, but it doesn't allow traffic from anyone or allow traffic to anyone.
interface vlan 70 6
ip address 192.168.7.1 255.255.255.0
ip access-group VLAN70-in in 1
ip access-group VLAN70-out out 1

Dell X4012 connecting to laptop with ethernet
Hi,
The issue i am having is when I power on the switch and connect it to my laptop it doesn't see the Ethernet connection. I have to disable the adapter and enable for it to get a signal. It seems like this happens every time i disconnect the power to switch or if i unplug the Ethernet for a longer period of time say 15 min. I do have a 10g adapter connected to Ethernet which is allowing me to connect to the switch.
I would appreaciate any input here.
Thanks
converging multiple external source vlan access ports through IPS to another vlan on switch (pictures help explain)
Right now I have a configuration that works but I'm getting a couple of ARP issues between external devices so I'm looking to further segregate. I have a switch N2000 to be precise, that I have all of my public devices on. I have an IPS that I run all external traffic through. One side of the switch is set as the "unsanitized" public traffic directly from the ISP, the other side is the "sanitized" public traffic after it goes through the IPS. Right now I have two vlans that do this, but I have two ISPs and a single IPS physical port for in and out.
Current setup (only showing relevant info):
vlan 2000,3000
vlan 2000
name "UNSANITIZED INTERNET"
exit
vlan 3000
name "SANITIZED INTERNET"
exit

switchport access vlan 3000
exit
!
interface Gi1/0/17
description "ANOTHER FIREWALL OUTSIDE INTERFACE"
spanning-tree portfast
switchport access vlan 3000
exit
I'd like to introduce vlan 1000 for interface Gi1/0/1 so that it is isolated from the other ISP devices. Right now both sides of the IPS are in access mode (2000 for the "external" side and 3000 for the "internal" side) and the traffic is untagged on all ports. I was trying to think of a way to pass both vlans 1000,2000 through the external interface of the IPS and out back onto the 3000 vlan.
I'm having a block if I could somehow use general mode and untagged vlans to traverse the IPS together but have the external modems or fiber ONT devices from being able to potentially see hardware MAC addresses from the other ISP.
Below is a very crude diagram of the setup. Traffic ingresses and egresses through the IPS bidirectionally but the end result is that the IPS has seen the traffic before it leaves the network to the Internet or before it enters the outside interface of our firewalls.
Hopefully that makes sense and thanks for any ideas.
N3000: Radius VLAN assignment
Hi,
I've tried assigning a VLAN via Radius, and I don't want/need to do fully fledged EAP (802.1x) but only MAC-based auth/MAB.
One of the messages I got was:
Time Stamp..................................... Apr 13 2017 18:04:21
Result Age..................................... 0 days, 1 hours, 33 minutes, 9 seconds
Interface...................................... Gi1/0/1
MAC-Address.................................... 001E.330B.7554
VLAN Assigned.................................. 1
VLAN Assigned Reason........................... Default Assigned VLAN
Filter Name....................................
Auth Status.................................... Authorized
Reason......................................... Authentication Successful, VLAN Assignment Feature Not Present for a MAB Client.
I found out that the VLAN is correctly assigned ("Dot1x Radius Authentication Successful for a MAB Client") if I configure Radius to perform an EAP dialog.
Why would EAP be necessary in order to get VLAN assignment via Radius to work?
Radius returns all necessary items (Tunnel-Type, Tunnel-Medium-Type, Tunnel-Private-Group-Id), there is no need to add EAP for that.
Bye,
Jammac
PS. Here's my current config:
authentication enable
dot1x system-auth-control

kinds of Static link aggregation
I have set up an static link aggregation with a powerconect2848 and there are 3 kinds of link aggregation avaiable: Layer2, Layer3, Layer2/3. Which differences there are between them? Can someone indicate some documentation about it ?
On the LAG port will traffic several vlans, which is gonna connect as a trunk port through an vmware standard vswitch.
Configuring PowerEdge M I/O Aggregator in PMUX mode - help needed
Hi All,
I am new to this forum kindly help me with below issue.
We brought new Dell M1000e chassis with M I/O Aggregator switches, switch1 and 2.
each switch have 2 X 40 gig ports total 80 gig per side , switch-1 80 gig and switch-2 80 gig, these switches connected with 40 gig cables which got split in to 4 10gig cables and goes in to patch panel and from there to upstream switch.
I got upstream connection from CISCO nexus 5k, network team configured port-channel,
i am trying to configure these switches in PMUX mode,
I configured port-channel but port-channel status is down and mode is L3, how to bring the status active and mode to L2 ?
i provided how in configured with command below please help me.

Handling multi-tenancy
We are in the process of setting up a serviced office. It could have up to 100 customers therefore 100 separate VLANs + other management and public VLANs.
These customer VLANs should not be able to access one another (obviously devices on the same customer VLAN should). However there will be public VLANs that all customer VLANs need to access as well.
There will of course also be an Internet Router/Firewall on another VLAN, that naturally all VLANs need access to for Internet Access. This VLAN also needs access to ALL vlans in case we need to NAT traffic into a device on any VLAN.
What is the best way to achieve this segregation? Using ACLs seems impossible due to the scale (and on the N4000 there is a 100 ACL limit), so what options are available to achieve the above, while ensuring all routing is handled by the swtiching itself.

Access (in L2 mode) -> N2048 (stacked)
