Upgrade Dell EMC Networking N1500 Series Switches

How to Access Serial Console on Dell EMC Networking N1500 Series switches

NOTE:

How to access serial console of the N1500 Series switch?



Use a supplied "RJ45 Yost to DB9 serial cable" to access the serial console.



Connect the RJ45 end of the cable to the RJ45 serial console port and the DB9 connector to your

PC.



Download and Install the terminal emulation software on your PC (for example, PuTTY) to access

the serial console with the correct settings (default setting 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity bit, 1

stop bit, and no flow control).

NOTE:

N1500 switches do not have an out-of-band interface.

NOTE:

By default, no network information is configured. The DHCP client is

enabled on VLAN 1 by default on the N1500 switches. DNS is enabled, but

no DNS servers are configured. If you assign an IP address to VLAN 1, you

can connect to the switch management interface by using any of the front-

panel switch ports. This is required to manage the N1500 switches over an

Ethernet port.

This example shows an annotated upgrade example for a N1548 switch. This example presumes the administrator is

logged in to the switch via Serial console. You can also follow this upgrade procedure via telnet or SSH after setting

enable password if it is not set so.
