Default Configuration

When you install the Dell Networking OS onto your S6100–ON system, it is

not configured when you power up for the first time (except for the default

host name, which is Dell).

You must configure the system using the CLI.

To enable Layer 2 data transmissions through an individual interface, use the

switchport command in INTERFACE mode.
