Hi Chris,

Thanks so much for that, how do I go about setting the ports to "stack mode" is that via the stack-group command?

Many thanks,

Dan.

Heya Daniel,

I would refer to the configuration guide linked below. This directs straight to the section on configuring a new stack and I believe should provide most clarity. If you have a backup config file available, you could also consider importing it.

Thanks for that, I'm new to Dell and struggling to find the correct firmware version. When I look online the version I require isn't listed, could you please send me a link to where you guys download firmware?

Hi, I found this list for FTOS https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000182876/ftos-for-s-series-s4048-on-platform Please check this list, I think it might be helpful. 

Hi there, 

Thanks for that, it's version Version 9.11(0.0P8) I need. 

I need this as it's currently the version running on the master switch, once I've got that switch added to the stack I will upgrade to a later version. It was a client environment we have taken over so updates are needed. 

Do you know where I can find OS9 firmware? 

Regards, 

Dan.

That's great, thanks so much for that. 

May I also ask, if I'm going to use the CLI to perform the upgrade would I just need to opt for the FTOS-SK-9.11.0.0P8.bin or the ONIE-FTOS-SK-9.11.0.0P8.zip?

The "ONIE" states it's the installer file which I'm not sure what that is so if I just copy the .bin file via USB or FTP I should be able to apply that as the boot image and install it that way. I'll need to look into what the "installer" option is as at present I do not know. 

Thanks again. 

Dan. 

Thanks for that, is there any difference between individual .bin file and the "installer" option. I'm assuming the installer option is the ONIE, is there any pre-requisite software I need to have installed on the switch or is it as easy as uploading the file and the switch will do the rest? 

At present, I don't understand the difference between the two different file options.  

I think it will be more easy, if you can use ".bin" file with ONIE
