Accessing a switch

To access switch A1 or A2:

Steps

  1. Log on to the CMC, go to I/O Module Overview, and click the Launch IOM GUI button for switch A1 or switch A2.

    If the button isn’t available, it’s because an IP address has not been configured. See Assigning switch I/O modules an IP address.

  2. A logon window displays. Log on. The Dell default credentials are: Username ‘root’, password ‘calvin’. Change these to comply with your organization’s security policies.

    The switch home screen shows the status of all ports on the switch. A green port is up (enabled), a blue port is down (disabled).

  3. Click on a port to go to its configuration page.

    Proceed with your desired configuration changes.
