The S4100­ON Series (S4128F-ON, S4148F-ON, S4148FE-ON, S4128T-ON, S4148T-ON, and S4148U-ON) switch comes from the factory with two PSUs and four fan modules installed in the chassis. The fan modules and the power supplies are hotswappable. In addition to the power supply modules, you can order and install fan modules separately.
NOTE: The S4100­ON Series switch supports two airflow direction options–normal and reverse. All fans and PSUs MUST have the same airflow direction. If you mix the airflow direction, to avoid heat damage to the switch components, you must correct the mixed airflow direction. Airflow is from the I/O panel to the PSU–normal. Airflow is from the PSU to the I/O panel–reverse. Environmental factors can decrease the amount of time required between fan replacements. Check the environmental factors regularly. An increase in temperature and particulate matter in the air might affect performance–for example, new equipment installation. CAUTION: Check the fans at six-month intervals, and replace them as necessary. Regularly monitor the speeds of the fans to accurately determine replacement intervals.

Before you install an OS

After powering on the S4100­ON Series switch, it goes through a power-on self- test (POST).
POST runs every time that the switch is initialized and checks the hardware components to determine if the switch is fully operational before booting. After POST, the switch uses the Grub bootloader.
To select an entry, use the up and down arrow keys. Press Enter to select an operating software (OS) or enter e to edit the commands before booting. Enter c for a command line. The selected entry runs automatically in the operating system.

After you have securely installed and powered on the switch, to configure your switch, see your third-party ONIE-compatible OS or the Dell OS documentation.
Topics:
· ONIE service discovery
ONIE service discovery
ONIE attempts to locate the installer through several discovery methods.
To download and run an installer, the ONIE Service Discovery feature follows these steps in order and uses the first successful method found: 1. Search locally attached storage devices for one of the ONIE default installer filenames–for example, onie self update
from the USB. 2. Query to the IPv6 link-local neighbors using HTTP for an installer. 3. Discover TFTP-based image from the DHCP server.
If none of the ONIE Service Discovery methods are successful, you can disable this using the onie-discovery-stop command.
You can install an operating system manually from HTTP, FTP, or TFTP using the onie-nos-install command.
NOTE: If you have a recovery USB plugged into your switch, remove it before using the onie-nos-install command.
The ONIE Install environment uses DHCP to assign an IP address to the management interface–eth0. If that fails, it uses the default IP address 192.168.3.10/255.255.255.0.
To display the IP address, use the ifconfig eth0 command, as shown.
ONIE:/ # ifconfig eth0 eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 90:B1:1C:F4:9C:76
inet addr:10.11.53.33 Bcast:10.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: fe80::92b1:1cff:fef4:9c76/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:18 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:24 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:1152 (1.1 KiB) TX bytes:6864 (6.7 KiB) Interrupt:21 Memory:ff300000-ff320000
To assign an IP address to the management interface, eth0, and verify network connectivity, use the ifconfig eth0 command, as shown.
ONIE:/ # ifconfig eth0 10.11.53.33/16
Verify the network connection with ping. ONIE:/ # ping 10.11.8.12 PING 10.11.8.12 (10.11.8.12): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 10.11.8.12: seq=0 ttl=62 time=1.357 ms 64 bytes from 10.11.8.12: seq=1 ttl=62 time=0.577 ms ^C
