Frequently Asked Questions

What must I ensure when installing new power supplies or fans?

All added fans and PSUs must maintain a uniform airflow direction; mixing directions will cause an alarm or auto-shutdown.

What steps are required if I need to downgrade the Dell Networking OS version?

Before downgrading from 9.14(1.12), you must save the current configuration and manually delete both confd_cdb.tar.gz.version and confd_cdb.tar.gz.

What is the maximum port density supported by the S6100-ON system?

The system supports up to one hundred twenty-eight 10G ports, sixty-four 50G ports, thirty-two 100G ports, and multiple QSFP+ I/O modules.
