Configuring a Port on a Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3030 Switch Module The following is an example of how to configure a port to operate at 100 Mbps and half duplex. (Note that you configure the switch using the DRAC/MC module, rather than the external console port on the switch module itself.) 1 Log on to the DRAC/MC Telnet or serial interface. 2 Enter the following command to enter privileged EXEC mode: switch-1> enable 3 Change to global configuration mode: switch-1# configure 4 Select a particular port and change to interface configuration mode: switch-1(config)# interface interface-id 5 Set the port speed to 100 Mbps: switch-1(config-if)# speed 100 6 Set the port to operate at half duplex: switch-1(config-if)# duplex half 7 Return to privileged EXEC mode: switch-1(config-if)# end 8 Exit privileged EXEC mode: switch-1# disable 9 End the configuration session: switch-1> logout Configuring the PowerConnect 5316M Ethernet Switch Module The PowerConnect 5316M Ethernet switch module is a 16-port switch with 6 uplinks and 10 downlinks: • The 6 uplinks connect to the external Ethernet network and operate at 10/100/1000 Mb. • The downlinks connect to the embedded Ethernet controller on the server modules and operate at 1000 Mb only. For additional information about the PowerConnect 5316M Ethernet switch module, see the documentation that shipped with the module or on support.dell.com. For detailed information on interoperability configurations, see the Link Aggregation Interoperability of the Dell PowerConnect 5316M with Cisco IOS or Cisco CatOS-Based Switches engineering brief on the switch module's page on www.dell.com.
