I'm trying to getup an inherited powerconnect 6248 switch and m1000e blade chassis. I've wiped things on the switch and blade chassis but am having a *** of a time being able to do a basic config.
I can't seem to be able to ping any address, vlan 1 or not, or hit any webpages. If someone has great step by step instructions, I don't need anything crazy, just need to be able to allow the m1000 with passthrough switches to communicate.
Thank you!
Hello,
I am checking the spanning status under Dell 3448 and please find the following output.
It looks like now is running with Instance 0.
But I am not sure is it really function now as some other band switch not support Instance 0
Following please find the output when checking the spanning status.

Could you please tell me the electrical wiring for the PoE ports on the PowerConnect 3448P? I am trying to connect a Ubiquiti Unifi Cloud Key to the PowerConnect and it fails to negotiate power. The Ubiquiti device is Mode B. That is, it uses pins 4,5 and 7,8 for PoE power.
So, I need to know if the PowerConnect is electrically Mode A (1,2 & 3,6) or Mode B (4,5 & 7,8).
Thank you.
Hi all
Can anyone explain how to set a gateway IP address in a Force10 S25 switch ?
Thanks

I can't find any rail kit DP/N for the Z9000, what are my options for mounting this 2U switch?
All,
I am totally new to dell switches (cisco background) and have been asked to create a port channel split over a pair of existing dell aggregator enclosure switches. All the other ports which are connected to the servers except the ports in question I am trying to configure are in port channel.
I have read that they cannot be in a port mode to do auto-lag port channel but I seem to be totally failing to workout how to:
1) Create a new port channel
2) Take the existing ports out of the port mode
3) Add the port to the new port channel.
When I try to create a new port channel interface I get as shown below
agg1(conf)#int po16
Error: Command allowed only for uplink Lag.
The port(s) I am try to change currently have this config:
interface TenGigabitEthernet 0/1
mtu 12000
portmode hybrid
switchport
vlan tagged 220,223,950
flowcontrol rx on tx off
!
protocol lldp
advertise management-tlv management-address system-name
dcbx port-role auto-downstream
no shutdown
And I am trying to get them in to the same config as this example port on the same switch (with a different port channel unique to the t0/1 port on both dell aggregators)
interface TenGigabitEthernet 0/2
mtu 12000
vlan tagged 220,223,950
flowcontrol rx on tx off
!
port-channel-protocol LACP
port-channel 1 mode active
!
protocol lldp
advertise management-tlv management-address system-name
dcbx port-role auto-downstream
no shutdown
which is then tied to :
!
interface Port-channel 1
mtu 12000
portmode hybrid
switchport
vlt-peer-lag port-channel 1
no shutdown
link-bundle-monitor enable
I am sure I must be missing some top level command somewhere that allow me to configure but I seem to be going round in circles and the only guides seem to be coming from a fresh switch setup (and concerned I am going to impact the setup of the other ports.
Any pointers would be greatly appreiciated
Got an N3024 off the shelf and it has a username password set on serial port. what are the options to reset this so I can get into it?
Any suggestions welcome.

This is probably the dumbest question I ever asked: I sent a technician to install on our PowerConnect 6224 a recently purchased RPS-600. The technician calls me back and tells me that the connector for the DC IN on the switch is not there (See attached image)
I tried looking on the manual and on optional accessories but could not find any information on a DC IN module. Am I right in my guess the connector is just hidden behind the cover? or is there some optional module I should buy for this (I already have the RPS-600 and cables)?

Here are this week's top-rated support articles based on accuracy, usefulness, & ease of understanding:
I have a Cisco core, I am integrating Dell into my network because I have heard great things. I need to set up DHCP Relays on my vlans (coming from a cisco background) and found that it has to be applied at the interface not the Vlan. I tried to apply it to my interfaces and I get "interface not in layer 3 mode". So this is my problem, am I to put all my ports into Layer 3 to get my relays added? This is on Dell S3148P switches.
Hi,
We got new Dell M1000e chassis with 2 PowerEdge M I/O Aggregator switch which are in (Role :Standalone , Mode : PMUX )
I am trying to validate VLAN which are coming from upstream Nexus 5K switch, when i check the "poweredge-m-io-aggregator_Administrator Guide7_en-us" PDF we have ping command with below options, non of the Syntax is working.
ping
Test connectivity between the system and another device by sending echo requests and waiting for replies.
Syntaxping [host | ip-address] [count {number | continuous}] [datagram-size] [timeout] [source (ip src-ipv4-address) | interface] [tos] [df-bit (y|n)] [validate-reply(y|n)] [pattern pattern] [sweep-min-size] [sweep-max-size] [sweep-interval] [ointerface (ip src-ipv4-address) | interface]
Only Ping IP address works, i would like validate Vlans which are presented from upstream working or not before moving the chassis to production.
kindly help me how to validate particulate vlan from specific interface by pining the gateway.
So I have inherited these Poweconnect 6248s and they have the original firmware 2.0.0.12, when I log in with the admin password, there is no enable command. all I have are a few show commands, has anyone ever seen this and what I can do to figure out why I cannot do anything on these switches
hello i tried connecting a cisco nexus 3k to a dell n3048 using the 1gig combo sfp port but received a notice that the transceiver was not dell qualified.
i was using a cisco 10 gig twinax cable
why does the cable not work? what are my options for connection? i like twinax because its nice and easy. does dell have its own twinax cable that would work?
We have a few of these switches and about every 2 weeks or so, we lose the ability to manage them. By this I mean the following:
1) The web portal never completely loads
2) We connect via ssh and can log in, but entering a command results in the command no completing and not returning to a prompt
The only remedy is to reboot.
We have a Dell x1018 P that communicating with the switch next to it (connected via fiber on an SFP). Upon fir inspection, we noticed that while the switch was powered up, all the ports were dark. We had to reboot it twice for it to become operational again.
It has the latest firmware (3.0.0.90).
Any ideas as to what could cause this and a potential remedy? The uptime prior to rebooting was about 3 weeks.
Hi All,
I am fairly certain i am missing something here, but what is quite an easy task on a Cisco doesn't seem to work on these dells.
Port Configuration:
spanning-tree portfast
switchport access vlan 999
port security discard
port security max 1
Now when i plug a device in it learns it's MAC, which is fine. Then i unplug that device and plug in another, expecting it to discard the packets, yet when doing a show port security addresses on the port it shows the new MAC!
I would have thought it would have picked up the fact that it is a new MAC and started discarding it's frames, yet it has removed the last MAC it learned and now thinks this is the MAC for the port.
On Cisco's you need to run the global config command for port security, but there doesn't seem to be the same thing on Dells.
It was running firmware 3.3.8.2, which i am in the process of updating to see if it is fw related.
Any tips?
Cheers
I took a brand new Netgear unmanaged GB switch plugged it into the port and waited for it stp to put it in forwarding mode..

We have been moving to the DELL 4032f MLAG connected switch as the core of a CCTV network with a Cisco 4510 as a LAG connection to the older network. We can not seem to get MULTICASTING traffic to pass over the DELL to CISCO LAG link. Multicast groups show up on DELL side of port channel but not the Cisco Side so CISCO side of network never seems to see the multicast traffic
