3130 for Dell and Cisco Catalyst Blade
Switch 3032 for Dell
Getting Started Guide
This guide provides instructions on how to install the Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch
3130 for Dell and the Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3032 for Dell—both hereafter
referred to as the switch—in the Dell Modular Server Chassis and how to set up
and configure your switch. The Dell Modular Server Chassis—hereafter referred
to as the server chassis—is a system that supports up to sixteen server modules
and up to six Ethernet switches. You install the switch in one of the chassis I/O
module bays on the rear panel of the server chassis.
Also covered in this guide are switch management options and troubleshooting
help for the switch.
For details on the number, types, and the location of the module bays and for
additional information on the entire modular server system, see the
documentation for the Dell PowerEdge Systems at www.support.dell.com.
For additional installation and configuration information about the switch, see the
Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3000 Series for Dell documentation on Cisco.com.
For system requirements, important notes, limitations, open and resolved caveats,
and last-minute documentation updates about the switch, see the release notes,
also on Cisco.com.
When you use the online publications, refer to the documents that match the Cisco
IOS software version that is running on the switch.

The switch runs the universal software image that has the Cisco IOS code for
multiple feature sets. To enable a specific feature set, you must use the software
activation feature to install the software license for that feature set. For more
information, see the Cisco Software Activation Document for Dell, the release
notes, and the software configuration guide on Cisco.com.

Switch Description
Table 1 describes the switch ports.
Each port has an associated LED. The System Status/ID LED is controlled
by the Dell Remote Access Controller/Modular Chassis (DRAC/MC)
management board.
For a list of supported modules, see the release notes on Cisco.com. For detailed
instructions on installing, removing, and connecting to SFP modules, see the
documentation that came with the SFP module.
Table 1 Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3130 for Dell and 3032 for Dell Port Descriptions
Port Description
Ports 1 to 16 Internal Gigabit Ethernet 1000BASE-X downlink ports that connect the switch
to the server chassis blades.
Ports 17 to 20 External 10/100/1000BASE-T copper Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports that support
auto-MDIX, and autonegotiation.
Ports 21 to 24 10-Gigabit Ethernet module slots for use with the Cisco TwinGig Converter
Modules and Cisco X2 transceiver modules.
Internal
100BASE-T
Ethernet port
The internal 100BASE-T Ethernet port (Fa0) is used only for switch management
traffic, not for data traffic. It is connected to the Dell management console
through the server chassis backplane connector. Traffic to and from this port is
isolated from the switch ports.
Console port Switch management serial port that uses an RJ-45 connector.
StackWise Plus
ports
Stacking cable ports (supported only on the 3130G-S and 3130X-S switches).

Information for the Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3000 Series for Dell document
that shipped with the switch.
Warning To prevent the switch from overheating, do not operate it in an area that
exceeds the maximum recommended ambient temperature of 113°F (45°C). To
prevent airflow restriction, allow at least 3 inches (7.6 cm) of clearance around
the ventilation openings. Statement 17B
Warning Class 1 laser product. Statement 1008
Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or
service this equipment. Statement 1030

Warning Ultimate disposal of this product should be handled according to all national
laws and regulations. Statement 1040
Warning For connections outside the building where the equipment is installed, the
following ports must be connected through an approved network termination
unit with integral circuit protection: 10/100/1000 Ethernet. Statement 1044
Warning Installation of the equipment must comply with local and national electrical
codes. Statement 1074
Installing the Switch in the Server Chassis
Before you install the switch in the server chassis, consider these points:
•Review and become familiar with the safety and handling guidelines
specified in the Product Information Guide.
•Review the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco
Catalyst Blade Switch 3000 Series for Dell that ships with this product.
•If you plan to create a switch stack, review the “Planning and Creating a
Switch Stack (Only 3130G-S and 3130X-S Switches)” section on page 22
before you install the switch and run the initial configuration setup program.
•To help ensure proper cooling and system reliability, keep these points
in mind:
– Each chassis I/O module bay must contain either a module or an
input/output module (IOM) blank.
– When you remove a hot-swap module, you must replace it with an
identical module or an IOM blank within 1 minute of removal.

Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3130 for Dell and Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3032 for Dell Getting Started Guide
Installing the Switch in the Server Chassis
– You can install the switch into any of the module slots. If you install a
switch in the B or C module slot, the Ethernet mezzanine card must be
installed in the blade server.
– The dust covers should always remain in place unless a module is
installed in the slot.
Caution To prevent electrostatic-discharge (ESD) damage when you install the switch,
follow your normal board and component handling procedures.
Note When you install a switch, you do not need to power down the server chassis.
The initial configuration assumes that the switch was never configured, that it is
in the same state as when it was received, and that it is not configured with a
default username and password.
Follow these steps to install the switch into the server chassis:
Step 1 Obtain and make note of this information from your network administrator before
you begin the switch installation:
•Switch IP address
•Subnet mask (IP netmask)
•Default gateway (router)
•Enable secret password (encrypted)
•Enable password (not encrypted)
•Telnet password
•SNMP community strings (optional)
Step 2 Select a chassis I/O module bay in which to install the switch. Follow the
prerequisites listed in the “Dell Modular Server Chassis Architecture” section on
page 6.
Step 3 Remove the IOM blank from the selected bay, and store it for future use.
Step 4 If you have not already done so, touch the static-protective package that contains
the switch to an unpainted metal part of the server chassis for at least 2 seconds.
Step 5 Remove the switch from its static-protective package.

Step 6 Ensure that the release latch on the switch is in the open position or perpendicular
to the module (see Figure 3):
Figure 3 Release Latch in Open Position
Step 7 Slide the switch into the appropriate bay until it stops.
Step 8 Push the release latch on the front of the switch to the closed position.
