Dell EMC SmartFabric OS10 User Guide Release 10.5.0

SmartFabric Services Graphical User Interface

OS10 has support for SmartFabric Services GUI to set up initial SFS configuration in a L3 leaf and spine topology. The SFS GUI is focused on day zero deployment operations and management of the switches in a Layer 3 fabric that is formed in VxRail deployment. Using SFS GUI, you can:
  1. Enable SFS in a switch. For more information, see Enable SFS using GUI.
  2. Setup initial deployment configurations from SFS mode using wizards:
    • Rename the network fabric, VLT fabric or rack, and switches.
    • Breakout ports.
    • Create L2 or L3 uplinks.
    • Onboard a server.
    • Create a Jump host.
    • Edit default fabric settings.

    For more information, see Configure SFS initial setup.

SFS GUI is supported on:
  • S4112F-ON, S4112T-ON

Launch SmartFabric Services GUI

You access the SFS GUI using the latest version of the browsers, such as:

  • Google Chrome
  • Mozilla Firefox
  • Microsoft Edge

Launch the SFS GUI from the SmartFabric master switch to complete the SFS initial setup. You can access the SFS GUI in HTTPS using the IP address of the master switch that is deployed in the leaf-spine topology.

Identify the SmartFabric master switch

When you create a Layer 3 fabric in a leaf-spine topology, of all the leaf switches, one leaf switch is selected as the SmartFabric master and the remaining leaf switches are nonmaster switches.

To get the IP address of the master switch in the Layer 3 fabric, use the show smartfabric cluster command. For more information, see show smartfabric cluster.

Log in to SmartFabric Services GUI

The login page prompts for username and password. To log in to the GUI, use the credentials that are created to access an OS10 switch from the console or through a network connection. The default username and password to login to the switch console is admin. You can also use any user-configured accounts as credentials.

NOTE OS10 validates the username and password using the token-based authentication in the OS10 RESTCONF API.

The session is automatically logged out, after the token time expires. The system displays the message: You have been logged out as the configured token validity time got expired. Please login again.

NOTE The default token timeout value is 120 minutes.

To log out, click Logout in the upper right corner of the Home page.

NOTE You can also get the master switch IP details through the GUI. Launch the GUI from any nonmaster switch using the configured IP address. The page displays the fabric mode of switch and the IP address of the master. Click the link icon next to the master IP address, to launch the SFS GUI.
