| 2 | +Dell SONiC Switch Initial Setup |
| 3 | +=================================== |
| 4 | +.. note:: |
| 5 | + |
| 6 | + Further installation requires a Console and Internet connectivity via the management port! |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +If the switch has pre-installed network operating system (NOS), it needs to be uninstalled first. |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +1. NOS Uninstall (if pre-installed) |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +To uninstall the current NOS, access **ONIE** from the GRUB menu and select the **Uninstall OS** option. |
| 13 | + |

| 15 | + :align: center |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +Once it's done, the switch will automatically reboot and get ready for the installation of Dell SONiC. |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +2. NOS Install |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +If there is no DHCP in the management network, stop the onie-discovery service and configure an IP address and default gateway manually. |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +.. code-block:: shell-session |
| 24 | +
|
| 25 | + onie-discovery-stop |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +.. code-block:: shell-session |
| 28 | +
|
| 29 | + ip addr add <management IP address/prefix> dev eth0 |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +.. code-block:: shell-session |
| 32 | +
|
| 33 | + ip route add default via <gateway of the management network> |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +.. code-block:: shell-session |
| 36 | +
|
| 37 | + echo "nameserver <DNS server address>" > /etc/resolv.conf |
| 38 | +
|
| 39 | +The Dell SONiC image should be available on a web server to which the switch has access through the local network or the Internet. |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +Example: |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +.. code-block:: shell-session |
| 44 | +
|
| 45 | + onie-nos-install http://192.168.100.10/Enterprise_SONiC_OS_4.1.1_Enterprise_Premium.bin |
| 46 | +
|
| 47 | +After completion of the installation, the switch will automatically reboot. |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +To login use the default username and password: |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +``admin/YourPaSsWoRd`` |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +3. Set up the Out-of-Band (OOB) Management. |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +Upon the initial boot of the newly installed NOS, please wait until the message "System is ready" appears, typically resembling the following: |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +.. code-block:: shell-session |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | + May 03 15:02:35.430469 System is ready |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +Once this message is displayed, proceed to disable ZTP using the following commands: |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +.. code-block:: shell-session |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | + admin@sonic:~$ sonic-cli |
| 66 | + sonic# configure |
| 67 | + sonic(config)# no ztp enable |
| 68 | +
|
| 69 | +Wait once more until the "System is ready" message reappears. This may take approximately 1-2 minutes. |
| 70 | +If there isn't a DHCP server available in the Out-of-Band (OOB) management network to ensure the switch's connection to the internet, you'll need to configure the Management IP address, gateway, and nameservers using the following commands: |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +.. code-block:: shell-session |
| 73 | +
|
| 74 | + admin@sonic:~$ sonic-cli |
| 75 | + sonic# configure |
| 76 | + sonic(config-if-Management0)# interface Management 0 |
| 77 | + sonic(config-if-Management0)# ip address <MGMT-IPv4>/<MGMT-SUBNET-MASK> gwaddr <MGMT-SUBNET-GATEWAY> |
| 78 | + sonic(config)# exit |
| 79 | + sonic(config)# ip name-server <DNS-SERVER1> |
| 80 | + sonic(config)# ip name-server <DNS-SERVER2> |
| 81 | + sonic(config)# end |
| 82 | + sonic# write memory |
| 83 | + sonic# exit |
| 84 | +
|
| 85 | +.. _sonic-switch-agent-installation: |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +4. Netris agent installation. |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +Navigate to the Net–>Inventory section and click the three vertical dots (⋮) on the right side of the switch you are provisioning. Then click Install Agent, copy the one-line installer command to your clipboard and paste in the switch. |
