Dell PowerVault 51F 8-Port Fibre Channel Switch Installation and Troubleshooting Guide

configDefault

The configDefault command is used to reset some of the switch configuration values
to their factory default values. In addition, this command configures the switch to
boot from its internal firmware if it has been previously configured to boot from the
network. This command may not be executed on an enabled switch; you must first
disable the switch using the switchDisable command.

switch:admin> configDefault

Committing configuration...done.

Because some configuration parameters are cached by the switch, it is recommended
that the switch be rebooted immediately following the execution of configDefault, or
unexpected behavior may result. With the exception of the following parameters, all
configuration parameters are reset to their default values:

World Wide Name

Ethernet MAC address

Ethernet IP address and subnetmask

IP gateway address

OEM customization

SNMP configuration

Zoning configuration

License keys

System name

configShow

The configShow command displays the current settings of many of the switch's con-
figurable parameters. The output of the command is broken up into two sections; the
first displays the switch's boot settings and the second displays other configuration
parameters, most of which are set from the configure command.

NOTE: The entry shown for the lcdContrast parameter is set when the switch is man-
ufactured and is not user-configurable.

date

The date command displays the system date and time. To set the date, perform the
following steps:
