Dell EMC recommended switch configuration
8 Dell EMC Networking S4148-ON and S4128-ON Switch Configuration Guide for Dell EMC SC Series SANs | SCG3704
2.3 Switch profiles (only for S4148-ON and its variants)
On the S4148-ON switch and its variants, switch port profiles determine the available front-panel Ethernet
ports and supported breakout interfaces on uplink ports. Refer to the switch user’s guide to determine which
switch profile fits for your environment.
Note: Changing switch profiles will delete all configuration information from the switch except for the
management port configuration. Save and reload the switch for the new switch profile to take effect.
OS10# configure terminal
OS10(config)# switch-port-profile 1/1 profile-<number>
Warning: Switch port profile will be applied only after a save and reload. All
management port configurations will be retained but all other configurations
will be wiped out after the reload.
OS10(config)# exit
OS10# copy running-configuration startup-configuration
OS10# reload
Proceed to reboot the system? [confirm yes/no]yes
2.4 Configure unified ports on S4148U-ON
Note: This section applies to the S4148U-ON switch only. Skip this section if using other switches.
This section configures unified ports on S4148U-ON switches to Ethernet ports. Refer to the switch user’s
guide for further details. Port-group 1/1/1-1/1/6 refers to the first 24 SFP+ ports on the switch. Use the
following commands to convert these ports to Ethernet ports.
OS10# configure terminal
OS10(config)# port-group 1/1/<port-group-number>
OS10(conf-pg-1/1/1)# mode Eth 10g-4x
OS10(conf-pg-1/1/1)# exit
OS10(config)#
Repeat the prior steps for port-group 1/1/1 to 1/1/6.
Note: QSFP+ and QSFP28 ports are by default in Ethernet mode. They can be configured by configuring
port-group 1/1/7-1/1/10 using the prior commands. Refer to the S4148-ON switch user’s guide for more
information.
2.5 Configure out of band (OOB) management port
OS10(config)# interface mgmt 1/1/1
OS10(conf-if-ma-1/1/1)# no ip address dhcp
OS10(conf-if-ma-1/1/1)# ip address <ipaddress>/<subnet>
OS10(conf-if-ma-1/1/1)# exit
OS10(config)#
