• DHCP server press PowerConnect 28xx series / address pool by VLAN

  Hello

  I am reading the manual of the PowerConnect 2824.

  I am considering buying this switch, but I have a question related to the functionality of the DHCP server.

  Here my question: I want to have different VLAN and use the feature of DHCP server on each of them. Then can I have different address DHCP pools by VLAN?

  Example:

  1-16 ports VLAN1: IP subnet 192.168.1.0/24

  VLAN 2 ports 17-24: IP subnet 192.168.2.0/24

  The manual is not clear on this.

  Your help is welcome.

  Kind regards

  Tom

  Daniel,

  Thanks for the reply. Another question does this mean that the 28xx series switch DHCP server, recover the IP address (from the range configured) on all the VLANS configured? So if a device on VLAN 2 issued a request DHCP, it will get an IP address from the same pool as for example a device on VLAN 1.

  Kind regards

• Management of VLANS on switches PowerConnect 28XX

  I had already tried the PowerConnect 27XX switches (mainly the 2708), and while it worked very well, he had a very, very frustrating feature: the IP address of management was always assigned to VLAN 1 - there is no way to change this.  I wonder if someone who has the (2708 or 2716) 28XX series could tell me if they have added a way to change the management VLAN, or if the management VLAN is always pasted to the VLAN1?  It is a decisive feature - I can't lose a port on VLAN1 on the switch just to be able to manage, as our current environment uses a VLAN for management.

  Thank you

  Nick

  management of VLANs is always vlan 1 on 28xx switches.

  An option is outwardly loop back one vlan 1 coelio to an access port vlan XX.   This will allow you to manage the switch on any vlan.  Of course, it burns 2 ports, not just 1.  But these switches are inexpensive, so you can have a hard time to find a solution less expensive just to avoid to manage on the vlan 1 or using the hack of the outer loop.

  Note: 28xx executes a single PLEASE, so you will need to disable the STP Protocol on the loop back ports if you go with this hack.

• PowerConnect 6200 series interoperability with 3Com Switch 5500.

  Hi all

  We offer to our customer Dell PowerConnect 6224 and 6248 as they are expanding their network.

  Their existing network is 3Com Switch 5500 and the main switch is 5500G - EI. Of course, on their network, they have mutiple VLAN and switch 5500G - EI core will make the VIRTUAL LAN routing.

  I would like to know, is it questions about interoperability between 3Com Switch 5500 and Dell PowerConnect 6200 Series, especially on the VLAN routing?

  Know your opinion.

  Thank you and best regards,

  Syed.

  I'm not aware of any questions that you would see with the use of these switches together. On switches 62xx you set them VLAN, and then set the connection of 3Com in general or Trunk mode, allowing the VLANS on the connection.

  Create a VLAN

  Console (config) # vlan database

  VLAN console(config-VLAN) # 2

  VLAN console(config-VLAN) # 3

  VLAN console(config-VLAN) # 4

  output console(config-VLAN) #.

  Configure the interface in Trunk mode and allow for VLAN through it.

  console switchport mode trunk #.

  console # permit trunk switchport vlan add 2,3,4 tag

  You may need to set a static route on the 62xx switch so the traffic on the next hop.

  Console (config) # ip route 172.16.0.0 255.255.0.0 10.0.0.2

  Here are a few good white papers to look over. Not all of them concern the 62xx switch, but the information is always good.

• PowerConnect 7000 series in-band versus out-of-band management

  Hi all, I have four Powerconnect 7024 configured as two piles: a battery is dedicated to iSCSI and the other pile is my front-end network. I have the installation of battery of iSCSI with OOB management with the port connected to my pile of front-end but how do I set up the front battery management? I tried to configure in-band management during installation but stupidly did not test and now its deployment and I can't handle the battery at a distance. How others remotely manage their kernel stack if there is nowhere else to connect the port OOB for? The powerconnect switch discourages in-band management, but I don't see why you would not use it in this situation. Thank you, Christian

  If you can connect to a laptop to the serial port, the RJ45 beside the OOB port corresponds to the serial port, but you would need a cable designed to convert the RJ45 and then possibly series to USB and series. You can access it through putty and set a static ip address to use on the OOB port with the command ip address ip address {ip address {mask: prefix length} | dhcp}

  It is also set to dhcp mode by default so if you connect to the OOB port for something that gives DHCP it can get an address.

• Dell Powerconnect 35xx series features Radius Server behaviorfin

  Hello Dell Community,

  I'm not able to find out how 35xx series switches handle 'server radius deadtime' parameter as described below:

  In the config of switch, I use two hosts(for redundancy) radius. The first has priority of '1' configured RADIUS, the second server is priority '2 '. So normally, if the first sever(priority 1) RADIUS online, auth requests switch are sent to this server all the time. And they really are.

  Now, I have also configured the 'deadtimet 10 radius server', meaning to jump on the radius server does not respond. Does that mean exactly?

  If the radius with priority 1 server is offline for a few seconds, the switch instantly consider this as dead radius server and sent no auth request it for the "period deadtime ' 10 minutes (depending on configuration)? How often switch check for the availability of the radius server host?

  config swtich:

  IP address Port port Prio time - Ret-dead-source IP. Its use
  AUTH Acct Out rans times
  --------------- ----- ----- ------ ------ ------ --------------- ----- -----
  10.10.10.10 1812 1813 global Global Global Global 1 all the

  Waiting period: 2

  Deadtime: 10

  Source IPv6:

  Retransmission will say the switch many times in an attempt to authenticate to the RADIUS server before moving on to the second server. Timeout is indicative of the switch, the waiting time for a response. Deadtime will subsequently intervene in these two parameters have been exhausted.

  Example config:

  Server radius coverage of console (config) # 3

  Console (config) # timeout 3 radius server

  Deadtimet console (config) # 10 radius server

  Result of config:

  -The client tries to connect.

  -switch attempts to authenticate the server 1.

  -Switch means no RADIUS server 1 for 3 second.

  -Switch waits 3 seconds.

  -Switch attempts to authenticate to the RADIUS server 1 for the second time and does not return to server for 3 seconds.

  -Switch waits 3 seconds.

  -Switch attempts to authenticate to the RADIUS server 1 for the third time and does not return to server for 3 seconds.

  -switch place RADIUS server, one in a State of low/dead for 10 minutes.

  -switch attempts to authenticate to Server 2.

• Reference Dell PowerConnect 2848 OID for CPU time and memory

  Hi all

  This is my first post in this forum. I searched all the messages that can solve my problems, but I could not find so if there is already an existing post and I couldn't find it please guide me to it.

  My case is. We have a few Dell PowerConnect 28xx switches in our network. We want to monitor things like the CPU, the temperature, the use of the RAM usage. We use Solarwinds IpMonitor monitoring tool. I downloaded the MIB, I could find the download of Firmware from Dell drivers and downloads page. I went through the entire MIB, but I couldn't find an OID for the foregoing.

  So if anyone can help me please what OID is used for usage of CPU and RAM temperature it will really help me.

  Please let us know in case we need more information on my side.

  Thank you

• HDMI piling on PowerConnect 5548

  We have 8 switches PowerConnect 5548 and are interested in using the stacking of HDMI for 10GbE.

  We currently have all 8 switches under tension and production running on them traffic.  Each switch is currently either back 'a home run' to a Cisco switch, or connected to another switch PowerConnect 5548.

  • Is mature enough stacking HDMI technology for a production environment?
  • It would be important if each switch have been 'home run'd ' to the Cisco switch and each 5548 PowerConnect was connected in a loop HDMI?
  • Stacking HDMI technology would require restart us our switches to implement?  A failure would be necessary?
  • All the special items of note regarding the type of HDMI cable?  (i.e. owner or any which best buy HDMI cable work?)

  Thank you
  Jon

  Is HDMI sufficiently stable stacking of the PowerConnect 5548 for production?

  • Yes (100%)
    
  • None (0%)
    
  • A little, but you better pay attention to the comments I post... (0 %)

  Jon,

  Technology HDMI wroks ideal for stacking the PowerConnect 55xx series. You can use the HDMI ports on the 55xx for stacking well and not for uplink to a Cisco or other device.  Also, you can stack only as 55xx switches with other 55xx and running the same version of the firmware.

  On the 55xx, you don't need to reboot the switches, but just plug the cables to create the stack.  An algorithm is used to determine which members becomes master and members who become slaves.  In my view, that the master is determined by which switch has been powered as long.  Don't forget that if you have the switches on different subnets or VLANs, they are configurations will be now changed all switches will become like a big switch.

  The type of HDMI cable is important, you will need to consult the documentation that came with the switch, or you can download the Guide of the user to http://support.dell.com.  You need cables that provide a flow rate of 10.2 Gbps (maximum allowed by the HDMI specification).  Usually the cheapest cables don't provide this.

• PowerConnect 6224: Dell SFP + port supports combine Dell SFP?

  I have a Dell Powerconnect 6224 switch and I installed a Dual Port SFP + Module of adaptation for PowerConnect
  6200 series at bay2 at the rear of the switch. I inserted a transceiver, SFP 1000BASE-LX, wavelength 1310nm 10km Reach in the SFP slot + and the other end is connected to a connector SFP 1gbe. I don't have any link. My question is if Dell SFP ports + supports SFP transceivers or it only supports SFP transceivers +?

  I checked the ports to help an SFP + SFP +, 10GbE, copper Direct Attach cable Twinaxial, and link LEDs are lighting up.

  I believe that the SFP ports + back work with SFP transceivers. Ports before combo will work with SFP transceivers. Another thing to look at is the cable being used. Don't forget that there are specifications that are compatible with transceivers FPS are you wanting to use. A SFP + SFP connection would require that the SFP transceiver + supports a connection of 1 GB.

  Hope this info helps.

• Dell PowerConnect 7048 P reference stack Questions

  Hello

  I have two switches in L3 7048P I want the battery but I'm not sure how it works. The two switches have the same firmware.

  1 must. the two have the same configuration running on both to make it work?

  2. in addition, I created a VLAN (3) voice on the first switch with an IP address of 10.0.3.254. I use the same IP address on the second switch in the VLAN 3 addresses or assign another?

  Thank you!

  There is a guide especially for stacking switch 7048 on the Dell page networking white papers:

  en.Community.Dell.com/.../2580.Networking-guides.aspx

  Just search "Dell PowerConnect 7000 Series Switches stacking".  Page 16 will tell you how to add a new Member to the battery with minimum interruptions. Both can present the same firmware in order to stack.  So the answer to question 1 is no, the configurations do not need correspond to stack them.  Once stacked, both will look like a single switch, and you use only the IP address of the master swtich to the whole stack.  Therefore, treat the two switches as a single switch during Setup.  The guide provides more information on how it works.

  Hope this has been helpful.

• N2048 vs PowerConnect 6248 switch

  Hello

  I would like to ask the professional.

  For the communication of internal servers of our company, what to spend more powerful N2048 or PC6248?

  We would like to use only ports of the team, LAG. No VLAN, no routing. Just "layer 2".

  Thank you.

  Best regards

  MAxim Krol

  Hi, Maxim,.

  If you do not give me layer 2 the N2000 is the newer model. It has several CPU memory 1 GB vs. 256 MB and increased capacity of fabric and a faster transfer rate.

• DHCP on 62xx and switches 28xx

  I'm putting up a VoIP system and fight with the network config. I have a mixed environment of 62xx series and 28xx series switches. I created a VLAN for voice and uses the default VLAN for data. VLAN routing on the l3 switch works fine. I can ping between subnets without any problem.

  Working with intellectual property, as the IP phones will get an address on the subnet of data, then restart and vlan tag allows to obtain the IP address of the subnet of the voice of any port on any switch. But if I put the pvid on any port to the vlan voices, machines Windows still get DHCP on the vlan, but IP phones will not, they will receive only an address so firstly through the subnet data. My voice switches also lose communication entirely, when statically defined with an address of subnet voice and connected to a port with pvid voice vlan.

  Through the subnet of data to get an address is no big deal, but being not not able to put my voice switches on the subnet of voice is a problem. I will freely admit that I know just sort of what I do. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  Here is the recommended method to configure the data and phone. http://www.Dell.com/downloads/global/products/PWCNT/en/pwcnt_voice_VLAN_support.PDF

  Data is found in the VLAN no marked native and the voice in a VLAN tagged.

• VLAN real PowerConnect base for beginner who does not understand the trunks etc.

  I have several switches Dell powerconnect 3548 and 5548 deployed on my network to install multi that I'm managing their individual DNS names.  now, I've added a voip phone system that works on my network, but to a range of ip addresses completely different to another server.  So, I want all my switches divided into 2 VLANS.  The basic vlan 1 will always manage the switches and all ports and the vlan voip will have its own set of ports on the second VLAN.

  There is no visibility between the VLAN, just different IP addresses different server DHCPd, s so if your clogged in the vlan 1 are you a PC/printer/etc with your own default gateways defined by the field.  If you are connected to one vlan 10 you are a phone and you will get your information from an edgemark server somewhere else.

  so step by step (if you want to give me even better orders) I have actually need it to configure to create a vlan separate and independent who will seek dhcp by an existing voip to its home network device to, while I can still manage my management ip switches.  I understand not all the vocabulary of trunking and I don't know if it needs anything else including marking, because are is all autonomous.  I guess I need a guid for Dummies at vlanning powerconnects.
