Installation
You can install OpenSwitch OPX using an industry-standard open network install environment (ONIE) software image with auto-discovery,
manually, or from a USB device. See opencompute.org for detailed information about ONIE installation.

ONIE installation support
• Automatic (zero-touch) installation — ONIE discovers network information including the DHCP server, connects to an image server,
options to point to the server for the image, and downloads and installs an image automatically.
• Manual installation — Manually congure your network information if a DHCP server is not available (see Manual installation).
System setup
Verify that the system is connected correctly before installation:
• Connect a serial cable and terminal emulator to the console serial port — required serial port settings are 115200, 8 data bits, and no
parity.
• Connect the Management port to the network if you prefer downloading an image over a network. To locate the Console port and the
Management port, see the Getting Started Guide shipped with your switch or the platform-specic Installation Guide at
www.dell.com/support.
Install OpenSwitch OPX
If there is a current OS installed, power up the switch to access the ONIE boot menu. The boot menu displays on the console.
