CAUTION: Although J-EX4500 switches are shipped with the Virtual Chassis
module installed, Virtual Chassis operation requires preparation in addition
to hardware connection. Do not physically connect multiple switches in a
Virtual Chassis before reading the appropriate instructions.
You can also add your J-EX4500 switch to an existing J-EX4200 Virtual Chassis or
mixed J-EX4200 and J-EX4500 Virtual Chassis. For instructions, see the Dell
PowerConnect J-EX Series documentation at
NOTE: You can configure and manage a standalone J-EX4500 switch with the
J-Web interface, but the J-Web interface does not support configuration and
management of a J-EX4500 Virtual Chassis or a mixed Virtual Chassis.
Part 6: Power On the Switch and Perform Initial Configuration
NOTE: If your switch will be part of a J-EX4500 Virtual Chassis, go first to Part 7 on
page 4. For a mixed Virtual Chassis, go first to Part 8 on page 4.
Read through the following steps before you begin the configuration:
1. Insert the jumper cable plug into the power source outlet on the switch.
2. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, set it to the ON (|) position.
3. Verify that the LED on each power supply glows steadily green for normal operation.
4. Enable a DHCP client on the management PC or laptop you will connect to the switch
so that the management device can obtain an IP address dynamically.
5. Become familiar with the LCD panel, Menu and Enter buttons, and status LEDs.
The LCD panel displays a count-down timer when the switch is in initial setup mode.
You must complete the initial configuration using EZSetup within 10 minutes. After
10 minutes, the switch exits EZSetup and reverts to the factory default configuration,
and the PC or laptop loses connectivity to the switch
6. Transition the switch into initial setup mode:
− Press the Menu button until you see MAINTENANCE MENU. Then press the
Enter button.
− Press the Menu button until you see EZSetup. Then press the Enter button.
If EZSetup does not appear as an option in the menu, select Factory Default to
return the switch to the factory default configuration. EZSetup is displayed in the
menu only when the switch is set to the factory default configuration.
− Press the Enter button to confirm setup and continue with EZSetup.
7. Connect the Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port on the PC or laptop to the MGMT
port ( me0 ) on the front panel of the switch.

NOTE: If you are configuring a Virtual Chassis master switch, the values you enter
in Steps 11 through 14 are applied to all Virtual Chassis members.
11. On the Basic Settings page, enter the hostname, enter and reenter a password,
specify the time zone, and synchronize the switch date and time settings with the
management PC or laptop—or set them manually—and click Next.
12. On the Management Options page, select Out-of-band Management—Configure
management port to configure the management interface, and click Next.
13. Specify the IP address and default gateway for the management interface.
14. Click Next. On the Manage Access page, you may select options to enable Telnet,
SSH, and SNMP services. For SNMP, you can configure the read community,
location, and contact.
15. Click Next. The Summary page displays the settings you have selected.
16. Click Finish. The configuration is committed as the active switch configuration.
NOTE: If connectivity between the management PC or laptop and the switch is lost,
reconnect by entering the appropriate commands on the PC or laptop to release
and renew the IP address—or remove and reinsert the Ethernet cable.
17. For standalone operation only, log in to the command-line interface (CLI) and set the
mode to intraconnect:
user@switch> request chassis pic-mode intraconnect
For standalone operation only, verify that the green ST (status) LED on the Virtual
Chassis module is on steadily and that the VC MODE LED is off.
18. Observe the amber ALM (alarm) LED to the right of the LCD panel.
A lit amber (minor) alarm LED is normal. It indicates that the switch has no rescue
configuration set. To save the current configuration as a rescue configuration that you
