key or other means of security and access is controlled by the authority responsible for the location.
Ensure that the area where you install your S4810–ON system meets the following safety requirements:
• Near an adequate power source. Connect the system to the appropriate branch circuit protection as
defined by your local electrical codes.
• Environmental temperature between 32° to 104°F (from 0° to 40°C).
• Relative humidity that does not exceed 85 percent noncondensing.
• In a dry, clean, well-ventilated and temperature-controlled room, away from heat sources such as hot
air vents or direct sunlight.
• Away from sources of severe electromagnetic noise.
• Positioned in a rack or cabinet, or on a desktop with adequate space in the front, rear, and sides of the
S4810–ON for proper ventilation and access.
Cabinet Placement
Install the S4810–ON only in indoor cabinets designed for use in a controlled environment.
Do not install the S4810–ON in outside plant cabinets. For cabinet placement requirements, refer to Site
Selection.
The cabinet must be a minimum cabinet size. Airflow must be according to the Electronic Industries
Alliance (EIA) standard. Ensure that there is a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) between the intake and
exhaust vents and the cabinet wall.
Site Preparations

Connect the grounding cables as described in Install the S4810-ON.
Fans and Airflow
The S4810–ON fans support two airflow options.
Be sure to order the fans suitable to support your site’s ventilation. Use a single type of airflow fan in your
system. Do not mix reverse and normal airflows in a single S4810–ON chassis.
• Normal — airflow is from the I/O panel to the power supply. The grab-handle is labeled Exhaust.
• Reversed — airflow is from the power supply to the I/O panel. The grab-handle is labeled Intake.
For proper ventilation, position the S4810–ON in an equipment rack (or cabinet) with a minimum of 5
inches (12.7 cm) of clearance around the exhaust vents. When you install two S4810–ON systems near
each other, position the two chassis at least 5 inches (12.7 cm) apart to permit proper airflow. The
acceptable ambient temperature ranges are listed in Specifications.
The fan speed increases and decreases automatically based on the system’s state and temperature. The
switch never intentionally turns off the fans.
Power
To connect the chassis to the applicable power source, use the appropriate power cord with the S4810–
ON. An AC power cord is included with the system.
When installing AC systems, follow the requirements of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70
where applicable.
The system is powered-up as soon as the power cord is connected between the system and the power

Power Supplies
The S4810–ON supports two hot-swappable power supply units (PSUs) with integrated fans that provide
cooling for the system.
The S4810–ON supports AC power supplies with two air-flow directions (normal and reversed). Two
PSUs are required for full redundancy, but the system can operate with a single PSU.
NOTE: If you use a single PSU, install a blank plate in the other PSU slot. Dell Networking
recommends using power supply 2 (PSU2) as the blank plate slot.
The PSUs are field replaceable. When running with full redundancy (two power supplies installed and
running), you can remove and replace one PSU while the other PSU is running without disrupting traffic.
The power supply LED indicates the power supply status:
• Off — no power
• Solid Green — Power supply is present and working
WARNING: ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESDpreventive wrist or heel ground strap when handling the S4810–ON and its components.
WARNING: To prevent electrical shock, ensure that the S4810–ON is grounded properly. If you
ground your equipment incorrectly, excessive emissions may result. To ensure that the power
cables meet your local electrical requirements, use a qualified electrician.
Components
The following power supply options are available for the S4810–ON.
• AC power supply with integrated fan
• AC power supply with integrated reverse flow fan
Power supply 1 (PSU1) is on the left side of the chassis; power supply 2 (PSU2) is on the right side of the
chassis.
The PSUs in the S4810–ON are field replaceable. When both power supplies are installed and running,
you can remove one power supply without interrupting traffic.
The PSUs are in a single piece with the PSU fans. You can replace the fan trays individually, but you
cannot replace the fans that are attached to the PSUs — if the fans attached to the PSU fail, you must
replace the entire PSU. For fan tray replacement procedures, refer to Fans.
WARNING: Prevent exposure and contact with hazardous voltages. Do not attempt to operate
this system with the safety cover removed.
CAUTION: Remove the power cable from the PSU prior to removing the PSU. Also, do not
connect the power cable before you insert the PSU in the chassis.

Replacing an AC Power Supply
To replace an AC power supply, follow these steps:
NOTE: The PSU slides into the slot smoothly. Do not force a PSU into a slot as this action may
damage the PSU or the S4810–ON chassis.
NOTE: If a PSU fails, you must completely replace it. There are no field serviceable components in
the PSU. To request a hardware replacement, refer to Technical Support.
NOTE: If you use a single PSU, you must install a blank plate in the other PSU slot. Dell Networking
recommends using power supply 2 (PSU2) as the blank plate slot.
1. Disconnect the power cable from the PSU.
2. Use the grab handle to slide the PSU out of the power supply bay.
3. Use the grab handle on the replacement PSU to slide it into the power supply bay.
4. Tighten the securing screws on the replacement PSU with a screwdriver. Ensure that the PSU is
secure.

Fans
The S4810–ON comes from the factory with one power supply unit (PSU) and two fan modules installed
in the system.
If two or more fans are installed and running, the fan modules are hot-swappable.
NOTE: To run the system, both slots must have operating fan units. If a module is not installed in
each slot (either as part of the PSU or as an independent fan module), the system shuts down in one
minute.
In addition to the integrated fan/power supply modules, you can order and install fan modules separately.
The S4810–ON supports two airflow direction options. Do not mix airflow types in a chassis; you can use
only a single airflow direction in a chassis.
• Normal — airflow is from the I/O panel to the PSU
• Reversed — airflow is from the PSU to the I/O panel
Environmental factors can decrease the amount of time required between fan replacements. Check the
environmental factors regularly. An increase in temperature and/or particulate matter in the air might
affect performance (for example, new equipment installation).
CAUTION: Check the fans at six-month intervals and replace them as necessary. Regularly
monitor the speeds of the cooling fans in order to accurately determine replacement intervals.
Components
The following are the S4810–ON fan components.
• S4810–ON Fan module
• S4810–ON Fan module - Reverse flow

Before You Install an Operating System
After powering on the system, the S4810-ON uses the U-Boot bootloader and 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 completing the boot process. Your system comes with
open networking installation environment (ONIE) installed.
During initial setup, the system boots to ONIE Install. ONIE Install boots with ONIE Discovery to the ONIE
console (ONIE:).
ONIE Service Discovery
ONIE attempts to locate the installer through a number of discovery methods, as shown. To download
and run an installer, the ONIE Service Discovery feature uses the first successful method found.
1. Passed from the boot loader.
2. Search locally attached storage devices for one of the ONIE default installer filenames (for example,
USB).
3. Exact the URLs from DHCPv4.
4. Inexact URLs based on DHCPv4 responses.
5. Query to IPv6 link-local neighbors using HTTP for an installer.
6. TFTP waterfall — from DHCPv4 option 66
Console Ports
31
Example of the ONIE Commands
If none of the ONIE Service Discovery methods are successful, you can disable is using the oniediscovery-stop command.
You can install an operating system manually from HTTP, FTP, or TFTP using the onie-nos-install
<URL> command.
The ONIE Install environment uses DHCP to assign an IP address to the management interface (eth0). If
that fails, it uses the default IP address 192.168.3.10/255.255.255.0.
To display the IP address, use the ifconfig eth0 command.
Example of the ONIE ifconfig eth0 command.
ONIE:/ # ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 90:B1:1C:F4:9C:76

To assign an IP address to the management interface (eth0) and verify the network connectivity, use the
ifconfig eth0 <ip address> command.
Example of the ONIE ifconfig eth0 <ip address> command.

Troubleshooting
This chapter describes system diagnostics and troubleshooting. After running the diagnostic tools, your
system displays pass or fail test results. If all tests pass, the diagnostic tools exit normally. If a test fails,
each diagnostic tool offers a different result.
NOTE: The troubleshooting package includes a README file that lists the tools version and the
overall troubleshooting package version. For more information, refer to this README file.
NOTE: To download the Release Notes, go to http://www.dell.com/support.
This system uses the following troubleshooting tools:
• Power-On Self Test (POST) diagnostic — Automatically runs during the system power-on at the BIOS
or U-boot level. This tool tests for catastrophic hardware failures that prevent booting the system. If a
test fails, the system halts from booting further. The error code is saved in CMOS for the next boot.
There is no physical alarm indication.
• Extended diagnostic application (EDA) — Tests the hardware for system failures. This is an ondemand diagnostic tool. EDA verifies platform-specific hardware. There are options to perform
diagnostics from a Quick Test to a thorough Intrusive test. If a test fails, you can halt or continue
boot-up. If you select the halt-on failure option, EDA testing does not continue. If you do not
select the halt-on failure option, EDA testing continues. Test results are saved in a user-defined
storage area. There is no physical alarm indication.
NOTE: To test your hardware, Dell Networking strongly recommends using the EDA tool.
NOTE: EDA runs in the ONIE environment, not in the networking operating system. You must be at
the ONIE prompt to run EDA.
Command Line Interface Options
Each diagnostic tool has the following options:
Command Description
—h

Help topics. Use help to find software-specific tools.
Tests against the preconfigured test file.
Viewing S4810-ON System Information
To view your system information; for example, the model, part number, serial number, and service tag,
follow these steps.
1. Reboot your system and enter U-Boot mode.
2. Enter the sys_eeprom command.

Boot Processes
After the BIOS or U-Boot hardware verifications, POST tests run to verify the CPU and memory prior to
booting the system software.
After POST testing, there are three additional types of diagnostic tools you can use for testing your
system.
• Manual diagnostic boot process — To run additional testing, manually download and run the EDA
tool. The EDA tool reports and logs pass/fail results.
• ONIE with EDA — EDA is installed; you do not have to manually download the tool. Select the
diagnostic option at boot-up. You can run this tool without a management interface.
• Autorun EDA — EDA is installed; you do not have to manually download the tool. Select the diagnostic
option at boot-up. You can run this tool without a management interface. The system always
launches EDA in Quick Test mode to verify the hardware components before loading the software. If
there is a failure at boot-up, based on the EDA configuration, the software may or may not continue
the boot process.
POST
POST diagnostics verifies system memory before the software loads. Test configuration parameters are
saved in CMOS for the next boot-up.
EDA (Quick Test Mode)
Quick Test mode runs basic device access tests for the system hardware to verify that the device is active
and responding.
In Quick Test mode, the EDA tool quickly tests if the hardware components are accessible. It confirms
the components respond to read access and in some cases, simple write access. Tests are read-only and
non-destructive (except the memtool command, which does allow read/write operations).
34
Troubleshooting
Restoring the S4810–ON Factory Defaults
If you need to restore the S4810-ON factory defaults, reboot the system to ONIE Rescue using the run
onie-rescue or run onie-diag commands. If it is not possible to do this with the operating system
you installed, reboot the system and hit any key to stop autoboot.
CAUTION: Restoring factory defaults erases any installed operating system and requires a long
time to erase storage.
1. To restore the S4810–ON factory defaults, run this command.
U-boot mode
run onie_rescue OR run onie_diag
ONIE Rescue bypasses the installed operating system and boots the system into ONIE until you
reboot the system.
2. Press ENTER to activate the console.
Example of the ONIE-uninstall Command
After ONIE Rescue completes, the system resets and boots to the ONIE console.
ONIE:/ # onie-uninstall
Erasing unused NOR flash region
Erasing 128 Kibyte @ 20000 - 100% complete.
Erasing internal mass storage device: /dev/mmcblk0 (7832MB)

Capture Support Data from ONIE
To capture support data from ONIE, use the following commands.
• To capture support data to the screen, use the ONIE:/ # dmesg command.
• To capture support data to the onie-support.tar.bz2 gzip file, use the ONIE:/ # onie-
support <output_directory> command.
Downloading the Diagnostic Package
To download the diagnostic package, follow these steps.
1. Assign an ip address to the management interface and verify the network connectivity.

The EDA tool tests the platforms using the default_eda_script.cfg configuration file. This script dictates
how EDA runs and which test runs first or multiple times. Each line of the script is the actual prompt
command line including parameters.
pcitool
The PCI tool (pcitool) allows testing of the PCI devices.
In EDA Quick Test mode, pcitool completes a simple check on the PCI bus. The tool scans the PCI bus
for all drivers and functions and writes the configuration registers to the configuration file.

i2ctool
The i2ctool allows testing of the devices on the i2c bus.
In EDA Quick Test mode, i2ctool scans busses and identifies all of the devices. If a device is behind a
MUX, i2ctool looks for devices through the MUX and, if present, a second-level MUX as well.
Example of the i2ctool Ouput

memtool
The memory tool (memtool) tests system memory.
EDA Quick Test mode only completes simple access (read) tests. You can use memtool to test static
memory areas, such as L2Cache mapped as SRAM or DRAM on a memory mapped device.
The memory configuration file consists of lines that describe a region of memory and the tests performed
on that memory region. Therefore, you can have multiple entries for a region of memory. All parameters
are separated by a : character. The following describes the configuration file parameters.
Parameter Description
Region Name: The region name referred to in all output.
40
Troubleshooting
Parameter Description
Start Address: The starting address for the region of memory in hexadecimal format (without the
preceding 0x). If the operating software is defining how to manage memory, this is
dynamic and you can use “-” for the start address and the memory uses malloc’d
from the available system memory.
Size: The size of the contiguous memory area (in bytes) in hexadecimal (without the
preceding 0x). If memory is dynamic, use “-” for size and the tests use the
maximum system memory.
Access: The letter that describes how this memory is accessed:
b — byte (8 bits)
h — halfword (16 bits)
w — word (32 bits)
d — double-word (64 bits)
Increment: How many bytes to increment to the next cell.
ECC: Describes if ECC is supported — 0 or 1.
Chunk: Describes how many kilo bytes (1024 bytes) are tested in one chunk. Tests multiple
chunks across the memory region.
Max Cache: The maximum cache size for this memory.
Cacheline: The size of a cacheline.
Iterations: The number of times to perform the tests.
Test: The collection of bits that tell which test to perform on this region. The tests are
performed in bit order. Some tests may not be performed due to time limitations
and the purpose of the test (for example, dim cache memory test which is time
consuming and destructive to data). To run an excluded test, you must specifically
request the test. For example, to run all tests including the dim cache memory test,
which is a 0x800, set the tests to fff.
A-1 — run all available tests.
Descriptive Device: The descriptive device (for example, SPD in the case of a dimm), is described in one
comma-separated field of four parameters: address, type, start, and bytes.
Device Path: The path to the device driver (for example, /dev/i2c-0 for a PD on the i2c bus 0).
Address of

pltool
The programmable logic tool (pltool) verifies access to the complex programmable logic devices
(CPLD) and field programmable gate array (FPGA) and verifies versions.
The pltool generates its configuration file based on the platform database. The configuration file is
generated with a specific version of devices in order to detect manufacturing misleads. The database
holds all the versions and is updated when new versions are released.
42
Troubleshooting
The configuration file displays in tree format. The base is the chip that can have multiple registers and
may or may not have bit descriptions and bit collection information. Each parameter in the tree is on an
individual line separated by the “|” character.
Example of the pltool Output
Syntax: ./pltool <option>
-h := show this help
test := test using the test config file
list := list devices and registers

individual line separated by the “|” character.
The following describes the C-row configuration file tree output.
C-Row Parameter Description
C The row identifier.
Type CPLD, FPGA, or TPM.
Address The address of the device. For CPLD on an I2C bus, this is an 8–bit address. For
PCI, this is the bus:dev:function in a packed 32–bit word, 8–bits each. For memory,
this is the address. LPC is unknown.
Name The text name for the device.
Interface i2c, pci, mem, io, or lpc.
Bus For devices on multiple busses, this indicates the bus number (for example, 0 for
i2c indicates /dev/i2c-0. For PCI, this holds the bus-dev-func in a 32–bit value with
each byte representing bus, device and functions in that order (for example,
0x020304 represents bus 02, device 03, and function 04).
Version Reg The register that contains the version for the device.
Version Mask The bits to use to check the version.
The following describes the R-row configuration file tree output.
R-Row Parameter Description

Troubleshooting Issues for the S4810–ON System
To help you solve an issue, use the following troubleshooting solutions.
Table 3. Troubleshooting Issues and Solutions
Problem Description and Solution
• A tool indicates a device as failing, but I do not
believe this is correct.
• A tool indicates a device as passing, but I do not
believe this is correct.
I need to verify the version of a specific EDA tool.
The storagetool runs and indicates a failure, but
I do not believe this is correct.
• If the configuration file for the particular tool
was somehow corrupted, the results may be
non-deterministic or inaccurate. Download the
diagnostic package again; this ensures a clean
copy of the configuration files. Then, re-run the
tool.
• All versions of the tools loaded from the
diagnostic package are listed in the /diag/
README file. When you run the edatool, the
output from the README file is output to the
console and the
file.
• Any updates to tools are in the form of a new
diagnostic package, which contains the
corresponding README file.
• To run tests, the storage tool requires that you
mount the storage device. To verify that there
are mounted devices, use the mount
command. If the device is mounted, the results
are indicating a problem with the physical
device.

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive for Recovery, Recycle and
Reuse of IT and Telecommunications Products
Dell Networking switches are labeled in accordance with European Directive 2002/96/EC concerning
waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). The Directive determines the framework for the return
and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the European Union. This label is applied to
various products to indicate that the product is not to be thrown away, but rather reclaimed upon end of
life per this Directive.
Figure 14. The European WEEE Symbol
In accordance with the European WEEE Directive, electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) is to be
collected separately and to be reused, recycled, or recovered at end of life. Users of EEE with the WEEE
marking per Annex IV of the WEEE Directive, as shown above, must not dispose of end of life EEE as
unsorted municipal waste, but use the collection framework available to customers for the return,
recycling and recovery of WEEE. Customer participation is important to minimize any potential effects of
EEE on the environment and human health due to the potential presence of hazardous substances in

Figure 17. Close-Up View of the Battery
Batteries or packaging for batteries are labeled in accordance with European Directive 2006/66/EC
concerning batteries and accumulators and waste batteries and accumulators. The Directive determines
the framework for the return and recycling of used batteries and accumulators as applicable throughout
the European Union. This label is applied to various batteries to indicate that the battery is not to be
thrown away, but rather reclaimed upon end of life per this Directive.
In accordance with the European Directive 2006/66/EC, batteries and accumulators are labeled to
indicate that they are to be collected separately and recycled at end of life. The label on the battery may
also include a chemical symbol for the metal concerned in the battery (Pb for lead, Hg for mercury and
Cd for cadmium). Users of batteries and accumulators must not dispose of batteries and accumulators as
unsorted municipal waste, but use the collection framework available to customers for the return,
recycling and treatment of batteries and accumulators.
Customer participation is important to minimize any potential effects of batteries and accumulators on
the environment and human health due to the potential presence of hazardous substances. For proper
collection and treatment, contact your local Dell Networking representative.
