Hi, my name is Chuck and I'm from the Dell Networking Technical Support team.
Today I'm going to go over how to set up access mode ports on OS10 base switches from the CLI. To access the CLI, please see the installation guide for the switch you are configuring. Access mode interfaces are an untagged member of only 1 VLAN.
Interfaces in OS10 are in access mode VLAN1 by default. And note the VLAN must be created before you can assign it to a port. For today's example, we'll use ports 14 and 15 and assign those to access mode VLAN 5.
First we're going to open a command line prompt to the switch, and from privileged exec mode we're going to run "show interface status" to see the current port mode and VLAN assigned.
Now, as we can see, ports 14 and 15 are in access mode VLAN 1. To make changes, we're going to run "config" from the privileged exec prompt to enter global configuration mode.
From here, we want to enter the interfaces either individually or using the "interface range ethernet" command to do both ports at the same time.
From the interface configuration prompt, we want to use the "switchport access vlan x" command where "x" is the number of the VLAN that we'd like to assign. Once that's done, "end".
Now we want to run the "show interface status" to verify our configuration. As we can see, 14 and 15 are now in access mode VLAN 5.
Don't forget to save your work by issuing the "write memory" command after you've verified the changes. For any questions or issues, please contact the Dell Technical Support team.
Thank you for watching.
