To configure a new S4100 series switch (Ex S4128F-on) we can use below details:

=Default baud-rate for console=
The first option to get connected to a new switch is via console.  For Dell switches while using the micro-usb port present on the switch, connect via Putty or hyperterminal with baud rate:

'''115200 baud rate, 8 data bits, and no parity. '''


=Default username password=
After connecting to a new switch the default username:password are:

'''admin:admin'''


=Configure management IP=
After connecting to console configure management IP and hostname:
<pre>
config t
    hostname <switch-name>
    interface mgmt 1/1/1
        no ip address dhcp
        ip address <address>/mask 
        no shut
</pre>
In case VLT is planned then decide what management IP to give.  In case of VLT we need the management connectivity between two switches.  See [[Configure VLT between two Dell S4128T-on or S4128F-on switches]]


=Enable SSH=
Enable SSH on the switch for remote access:
<pre>
config t
    ip ssh server enable
</pre>


=Create sysadmin role user or change admin user password=
Create a new user or change existing admin user password:
<pre>
config t
    username admin password <plaint-text-password> role sysadmin
</pre>


=Firmware update=
Optionally update firmware as described at [[Upgrading firwmare on S4100 series Dell switches with OS 10]]


=Create VLANs or interface vlans=
For L2 VLANs we can do:
<pre>
config t
    interface vlan <vlan-id>
        no shut
</pre>
For L3 interfaces with IPs 
<pre>
config t
    interface vlan <vlan-id>
        ip address <address>/<mask>
        no shut
        mtu 9216
</pre>


=Configure VLT=
Based on HA requirement between two switches see [[Configure VLT between two Dell S4128T-on or S4128F-on switches]]
