Question

Hi,

I have now 2 switch s4048.One(switch 1) is running and the other one is brand new (switch 2) that replaced an broken switch s4048.

The 2 switches are connected by lag5 (port 49 with port 49 and port 50 with port 50)

Switch 1 :port 1/25 connected to router 1.

Switch 2.port 1/25 will be connected to router 2.

On the new switch -brand new:

Dell>#configure

Dell(conf)#interface ManagementEthernet 1/1

Dell(conf-if-ma-1/1)#no shutdown

Dell(conf-if-ma-1/1)#ip address 10.68.229.90/24

Dell(conf-if-ma-1/1)#exit

Dell(conf)#username admin password admin

Dell(conf)#enable password admin

Configure port channel for LAG

These commands configure the switch interconnect as a LAG.

Dell(conf)#interface Port-channel 5

Dell(conf-if-po-1)#mtu 12000

Dell(conf-if-po-1)#switchport

Dell(conf-if-po-1)#no shutdown

Dell(conf-if-po-1)#exit

Configure QSFP ports for LAG

These commands assign 40Gb QSFP ports to the Port Channel.

Dell(conf)#interface range fortyGigE 1/49 , fortyGigE 1/50

Dell(conf-if-range-fo-1/49,fo-1/50)#no ip address

Dell(conf-if-range-fo-1/49,fo-1/50)#mtu 12000

Dell(conf-if-range-te-1/49,fo-1/50)#no shutdown

Dell(conf-if-range-fo-1/49,fo-1/50)#flowcontrol rx on tx off

Dell(conf-if-range-fo-1/49,fo-1/50)#port-channel-protocol lacp

Dell(conf-if-range-fo-1/49,fo-1/50-lacp)#port-channel 5 mode active

Dell(conf-if-range-fo-1/49,fo-1/50-lacp)#exit

Dell(conf-if-range-fo-1/49,fo-1/50)#exit

Dell(conf)#exit

conf
interface vlan 229
description RTA staging OAM
interface te 1/25
switchport
interface vlan 229
tag te 1/25
ip addr 10.68.229.45/26
no shutdown
exit

I connected next the router to 1/25.

show interfaces te 1/25

link is up protocol is down. where is the issue?

the cable between router and switch is good.

should i connect the router to port 1/1 to copy the below file?

should i connect all the cables 1/1-1/8 to this switch?

From switch i am not able to ping anything.

I like to copy by ftp startup-config from the switch 1 to switch 2.

config ftp server on switch 2.

conf
ftp-server enable
exit
show run ftp
config
ftp-server topdir flash:
ftp-server username admin password admin

config ftp client on switch 1

conf
ip ftp source-interface vlan 229
ip ftp password admin
ip ftp username admin

i am not able to copy .

I need a solution because this is i production.

tnx

Dell>enable

Dell#delete startup-config

Proceed to delete startup-config [confirm yes/no]yes

Dell#reload

System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]no

Hi, Are the firmware versions the same? Are the speeds set to auto negotiate?

hi,

i have configured vlan 229 in every switch.

but port-channel 5 is not included in vlan 229 in both switches.

can be this the issue?

if i include port-channel 5 then can i copy startup-config from a switch to other switch?

conf
interface vlan 229

interface port-channel 5

exit
