Dell recommended switch configuration

These steps show how to configure two Brocade VDX 6940 switches with a Brocade proprietary LAG

interconnect. The switches are interconnected using two 40Gb ports (35 and 36) configured as the LAG links.

Note: The configuration steps in this section are only recommended when the switch is used as a dedicated

SAN for iSCSI traffic (not shared with any other traffic type).

2.1

1. Power on both switches.

2. Connect a serial cable to the management port.

3. Using any terminal utility, open a serial connection session to the switch.

4. Open your terminal emulator and configure it to use the serial port (usually COM1 but this may vary

depending on your system). Configure serial communications for 9600,N,8,1 and no flow control.

5. Connect the cables between switch 1 and switch 2 as shown in Figure 1. This will be used as your

Brocade LAG link.

Note: The following configuration steps assume that the switch is configured with a unique Rbridge-id and

VCS id. The LAG interconnection will fail to come up if the Rbridge-id or VCS id is conflicting. Refer to

section 4 to change the Rbridge-id and VCS id of the switch.

2.2

Note: This example assumes a switch at its default configuration settings. Using the copy default-

config startup-config command sets the startup configuration file to its default settings. Always back

up your configuration settings prior to performing any configuration changes.

sw0# copy default-config startup-config

This operation will modify your startup configuration. Do you want to continue?

[y/n]:y

WARN: "reload system" is required to have configuration changes take effect!

sw0# reload system

Warning: This operation will cause the chassis to reboot and

requires all existing telnet, secure telnet and SSH sessions to be

restarted.

Are you sure you want to reboot the chassis [y/n]? y

Note: The switch will reboot. The default user ID and password are "admin" and "password".
