Users Guide

The ONIE auto-discovery process discovers the image file at the specified USB path, loads the software image, and reboots the
switch. For more information, see the ONIE User Guide.
Log in
Connect a terminal emulator to the console serial port on the switch using a serial cable. Serial port settings are 115200 baud
rate, 8 data bits, and no parity.
To log in to an OS10 switch, power up and wait for the system to perform a power-on self-test (POST). Enter admin for both
the default user name and user password.
Change the default admin password after the first OS10 login. The system saves the new password for future logins. After you
change the password through the CLI, use the write memory command to save the configuration. For example:
OS10 login: admin
Password: admin
Last login: Sat Oct 6 00:25:33 UTC 2018 on ttyS0
Linux OS10 4.9.110 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.110-3+deb9u4 x86_64

Configuration notes
All Dell EMC PowerSwitches:
When logging into a switch, it may take 6 to 10 seconds for the CLI prompt to display.
Install OS10 license
If OS10 is factory-loaded on your switch, you do not need to install an OS10 license as it is pre-loaded with a perpetual license.
If you download OS10 on a trial basis, OS10 comes with a 120-day trial license. ONIE installation on a factory-loaded Dell EMC
switch wipes out the license partition. Hence, the switch on reload comes up with a default 120 day trial license.Purchase and
install a perpetual license after the trial period expires.To continue with uninterrupted use, purchase and install a perpetual
license to avoid the OS10 device rebooting every 72 hours after 120 days.
After you install OS10 and log in, install the perpetual license to run OS10 Enterprise Edition beyond the trial period. The OS10
license is installed in the /mnt/license directory.
1. Download the License.zip file from DDL as described in Download OS10 image.
