3.2.2 Factory default configuration

Setting the switch to factory default will delete all configuration settings and restart the switch.

Switch-1# delete startup-configuration

Proceed to delete startup-configuration [confirm yes/no(default)]:yes

Switch-1# reload

System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]:no

Continuing without saving system configuration

Proceed to reboot the system? [confirm yes/no]: yes

The switch reboots with factory default settings and is ready to configure utilizing the default username and

password of admin/admin.

3.2.3 Switch-port profiles

On the S4148 switch series, switch-port profiles determine the enabled front-panel ports, supported breakout

modes on Ethernet, and unified ports. Change the port profile on a switch to customize uplink and unified port

operation, and the availability of front-panel data ports.

Note: switch-port profile 1 is the default profile on the S4148-ON switches

This document utilized switch-port profiles 1 and 2.

- Profile-1 (10GbE and 100GbE uplinks)

- Profile-2 (40GbE uplinks)

To change the switch-port profile, enter the switch-port-profile command with the desired profile,

save it to the startup configuration, and reload the switch.

1. Set the switches switch-port profile

Switch-1# configure terminal

Switch-1(config)# switch-port-profile 1/1 profile-1

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.

Switch-1(config)# exit

Switch-1# copy running-configuration startup-configuration

Switch-1# reload

Proceed to reboot the system? [confirm yes/no]yes

2. Verify the switches switch-port profile

Switch-1# show switch-port-profile
