Getting Started Guide 13
Booting the N2128PX-ON Switch
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.
You can invoke the Boot menu after the first part of the POST is completed.
From the Boot menu, you can perform configuration tasks such as resetting
the system to factory defaults, activating the backup image, or recovering a
password. For more information about the Boot menu functions, refer to the
CLI Reference Guide.
14 Getting Started Guide
Performing the N2128PX-ON Initial Configuration
The initial configuration procedure is based on the following assumptions:
• The Dell Networking switch was never configured before.
• The Dell Networking switch booted successfully.
• The console connection was established, and the
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 from the alreadyconnected console port or remotely through an interface defined during the
initial configuration.
NOTE: The switch is not configured with a default user name, password, or IP
address.
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 interface.
• The IP subnet mask for the network.
• The IP address of the management interface default gateway.
These settings are necessary to allow the remote management of the switch
through Telnet (Telnet client) or HTTP (Web browser).
Enabling Remote Management
On the N2128PX-ON/N3132PX-ON switches, you can use any of the switch
ports on the front panel for in-band management. By default, all in-band
ports are members of VLAN 1.
The Dell Easy Setup Wizard includes prompts to configure network
information for the VLAN 1 interface on the N2128PX-ON switch. You can
assign a static IP address and subnet mask or enable DHCP and allow a
network DHCP server to assign the information.
Refer to the CLI Reference Guide for commands to configure network
information.

Initial Configuration Procedure
Perform the initial configuration by using the Dell Easy Setup Wizard or by
using the CLI. The 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, and the switch will use the
default values.
NOTE: If you do not run the Dell Easy Setup Wizard or do not respond to the initial
Easy Setup Wizard prompt within 60 seconds, the switch enters CLI mode. You must
reset the switch with an empty startup configuration in order to rerun the Dell Easy
Setup Wizard.
For more information about performing the initial configuration by using the
CLI, refer to the CLI Reference Guide. This Getting Started Guide shows how
to use the Dell Easy 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 VLAN 1 routing interface, of which all
in-band ports are members.
• 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 network management system IP address or
permit management access from all IP addresses.
• Configures the default gateway IP address for the VLAN 1 interface.

N3132PX-ON Installation
Rack Mounting a N3132PX-ON Switch
Place the switch on the rack shelf or mount the switch directly into a 19 inch
wide, EIA-310-E compliant rack (four-post, two-post, or threaded methods).
The Dell ReadyRail system is provided for 1U front-rack, and two-post
installations. The ReadyRail system includes two separately packaged rail
assemblies.
WARNING: This is a condensed reference. Read the safety instructions in your
Safety, Environmental, and Regulatory information booklet before you begin.
NOTE: The illustrations in this document are not intended to represent a specific
switch.
Rack Mounting Safety Considerations
• Rack loading—Overloading or uneven loading of racks may result in shelf
or rack failure, causing damage to equipment and possible personal injury.
Stabilize racks in a permanent location before loading begins. Mount
components beginning at the bottom of the rack, then work to the top. Do
not exceed your rack load rating.
• Power considerations—Connect only to the power source specified on the
unit. When multiple electrical components are installed in a rack, ensure
that the total component power ratings do not exceed circuit capabilities.
Overloaded power sources and extension cords present fire and shock
hazards.
• Elevated ambient temperature—If installed in a closed rack assembly, the
operating temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room
ambient. Use care not to exceed the 45° C maximum ambient temperature
of the switch.
• Reduced air flow—Install the equipment in the rack so that the amount of
airflow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
• Reliable earthing—Maintain reliable earthing of rack-mounted
equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than
direct connections to the branch circuit, for example: use of power strips.
