How to connect two network switches Force10 S4810P

Hello world

We just bought two S4810P Force10 network switches and we want to install on two adjacent brackets. They will be used to interconnect computing and NAS storage, installed in two baskets serving mainly local connections.

We intend to use ports QSFP + to connect the two switches, and I have two questions.

1. hardware configuration: what are the best transceivers and cables to use in this case?

2. configuration of the software: should we use stacking or virtual link trunking? the information I've read so far does not give me a definitive answer.

Thank you very much in advance for your help!

The server room is already has some inside wiring? If so it be a transceiver that will percolate pre-existing cables. There are also some direct attach cables ranging from 0.5 m to 50 m. Here is an example of a cable direct attach: http://dell.to/23huDl7

the best course of action would be to contact your sales representative and let them know what your needs are. They can get you city for right connection hardware.

the VLT and stack the two have the same goal of redundancy, but go about it in different methods with different warnings warning for both. In both scenarios, the redundancy is dependent on each device connection linking the two switches. If you do not do this, then it may be better to let the independent switches. Here is a good blog that compares the VLT and stacking.

I hope this helps.

  • How to connect two databases to a single listener

    Hello

    How to connect two databases to a listener.is it is possible or not

    Hello

    Yes, you can record a single listener to respond to several databases. There are several ways to do it and the best way that I would suggest for you is the use of "Network Setup Wizard" or "netca", which is a graphical interface that allows you to meet your requirement. Otherwise, you can hardcode in your listener.ora file located in the 'ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora '.

    Example is as follows

    Listener.ora

    SCREW =
    (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = lab01) (PORT = 1521))
    )
    )

    SID_LIST_VIS =
    (SID_LIST =
    -1 database configuration
    *(SID_DESC =*)
    * (ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1)*
    * (SID_NAME = DB1) *.
    *)*
    -Database Setup 2
    *(SID_DESC =*)
    * (ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1)*
    * (SID_NAME = DB2). *
    *)*
    )

    Then restart your listener.

    Kind regards

  • How to connect two clips?

    Okay, I'm making progress - but I don't know how to connect two or more items.

    Patrick

    Thanks for the reply.

    Could you clarify... Once you've created your content of chronology...

    When you said made it... do you want to say that you pressed the button made above the timeline in order to obtain the best possible overview

    or were you using the go Word to signify that you have exported the content of the timeline to one of the categories under publish + share/computer?

    If you have exported (saved) via Publish + share/computer/and other categories, the export dialog box has a Save In: location. And you will find

    your file exported to this place (you can change to one of your choice for the default location).

    If you save the project (.prel) file without exporting, you can find the file of the project in several ways. Means the faster would be to

    Hold the cursor of the mouse on the name of the project (top right of the workspace Expert), and the path to the project file should be revealed to you.

    I demo had this to 12 (13 won't get installed until Tuesday). But, same idea 12 or 13.

    Guided tutorials did you use for your excellent results? All or one in particular?

    You can go further with free learning tools and the use of exploration and experimentation.

    The possibilities of creation using Premiere Elements are endless.

  • How to map a network switch manually

    Hello

    I have a Data Center remote I'm trying to draw, without visiting the site and the tracing of cables. Because I can access the table of addresses on each switch, what is the best way to know if button A is connected to the switch B? the switches in my MS are stacked, which complicates things a bit.

    For example when I look at my MAC address table, almost all my switches have a MAC by port, port of the channel apart (I think it's a link aggregate port) which shows the MAC addresses belonging to Dell, Cisco and other devices. How can I find out the opening of the canal in which plugs directly? Get a Dell switch or say a Cisco switch?

    Thank you

    Just in case someone else needs it, I discovered the following invaluable tools:

    Use the web browser on each switch to view nieghbors LLDP (real gives of switch ports and can also show the details announced on non Dell kit)
    Use the commands 'show deck' and «see the mac»
    See the neighbouring ISDP is also useful (depends on the switch)
    Open Network Manager was not as smart hoped for example, with the SNMP strings to two directly connected switches, I could not find a way for the NOM give the link real ports

  • Connect two networks with different subnets

    I have a network that is totally excluded from the rest of the network. It consists of a switch Allied Telesis AT - 8624T layer / 2M 3, a computer and a few PLC devices.

    It is the only switch Allied Telesis, the rest of our network is Cisco. Allied was by a seller.

    Our network uses a 10.10.1.X network, but this standalone network uses a 192.168.201.x. I need to connect the two networks, because a system on the network 10.10.1.x need to access the computer on the network 192.168.201.x. I wonder if I can do it with a 2960 s Cisco or if I should get a router between the two switches.

    I am pretty new to the implementation of this type of equipment, was suddenly thrown into the mix, I appreciate any help that can be offered. Thank you.

    Hello!

    You can do this with your switch 2960, they take over the static routing. Please see the following link for detailed configuration instructions:

    http://www.Cisco.com/c/en/us/TD/docs/switches/LAN/catalyst2960/software/...

    You will not be able to perform routing inter - vlan but pointing your static routes to the other managed switch interface you will be able to achieve. BE aware that the other switch must have some sort of routing capabilities too or you will need to get a router.

    I hope this can help, greetings!

  • How to connect two computers and LAN

    I can't get my toshiba to interface with my desktop computer or to connect to the internet via a CAT5.
    I tried everything I know.

    I'm not too sure about the LAN MAC? He just will not connect even if the device is functioning properly.

    Any ideas?

    Here are the instructions how can connect the two computers.

    -First of all, you will need to disable the firewall.
    -Then you need to set the same workgroup on both computers
    -in the Lan Card Properties-> Protocol TCP/IP settings, you must assign the IP address manually. That is, a computer must use the 192.186.50.1 ip address and the other computer must be set to 192.186.50.2.
    -MAC address is fixed and cannot be changed. Each LAN card uses unique mac address

    After these settings, you must restart the portable computers (computers)

    PS: I recommend Google for details and further instructions.

    Make sure you have your wireless card install correctly on your computer. If you have a laptop then you have a wireless card already in the machine.

    That's all need you. Go to start > Control Panel > network connections, here it takes a current wireless connection. If no, you must install you wireless drivers from the manufacturing of the Wireless card in the computer. (Linksys, Netgear ext...)

    but without any effect.

    Please, help me succefuly ping and connect all the succefuly of networks.

    Khalil

    You must watch your switching configurations and go through them carefully.

    Just looking at them, I can see that EIGRP configurations are wrong.

    On each switch, you should have statements of network for connected networks, not for networks that are not directly connected.

    If you go through them again and refer to your diagram, you should be able to see that you have set up statements of network under EIGRP for networks that are connected to other switches.

    This is why EIGRP is not coming.

  • Dell XPS 8500 with 1 GB AMD Radeon HD 7570 - how to connect two monitors or?

    Hi, I got my Dell XPS 8500 today with the 1 GB AMD Radeon HD 7570.

    Before buying the office, I read online that the AMD Radeon HD 7570 supports Eyefinity.   Eyefinity is supposed to be capable of supporting 4 monitors using the HD 7570 map by the description here: http://www.amd.com/us/products/desktop/graphics/7000/7570/Pages/radeon-7570.aspx#2

    When you look at the photos of the Dell XPS 8500 online I thought that Eyefinity support was to use a display in addition to the DVI port Port.   Specifically, I thought that a monitor has been supported by DVI monitors while 4 thru two supported using an active connection to the view port using a product like the DisplayPort Accell UltraAV K087B-005 / 3 x multi-monitor DVI - D single-link adapter.

    To my surprise the graphics card came with an HDMI port, not a display port and I believe that HDMI port is a connection from one to the other, and not one of many display connection.   Maybe someone can correct me if I am wrong on this point.   But if I'm not wrong then, this would imply that, at most, the Dell XPS 8500 with the AMD Radeon HD card 7570 can support up to only 2 monitors (one DVI port) and the other HDMI port instead of 4 monitors as described on the above link.

    Others would agree with this statement?

    Note that the Dell XPS 8500 also has a VGA connector on it but I tested it using a monitor on VGA and a monitor on the DVI connection and the computer that reported as an invalid monitor config.   Probably because the VGA and DVI connections are originally the same video display as connect two monitors to display even has no logical sense.

    I have not tested the HDMI port for the second monitor again mainly because I don't have a spare HDMI cable on site at the present time.   I'll probably buy one tomorrow unless I see the comments of my post, specifying that a second monitor can be moved through the HDMI port on the AMD Radeon HD 7570 map...   I'd be surprised if that were the case (1 monitor system would be quite restrictive), but it is difficult to say with certainty, because the VGA and DVI connections at the same time have been marked by the computer as an invalid configuration...

    Any thoughts on the different ways to configure multiple monitors with the XPS 8500 and the 1 GB AMD Radeon HD 7500 is appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Doug

    If the card is not a display port is not an eyefinity card and cannot stand 3 monitors... it will be 2 monitors, no problem... I couldn't find anywhere on the site of Dell, where he says that the card was eyefinity... If you want 3 assumption of monitors you can buy a video card that supports.

    Hi all, I have a question.

    Which is the best method (udp, tcp, http, using the pushRegistry...) to connect two blackberrys and set the communication with IP address?

    Thank you!

    except maybe in a wlan environment (which I do not know of the), you are not able to directly connect two blackberries. It must be a server between the two, using push, if they are connected to a BES or mail/bbmsger if not.
