Automating VLAN Configuration on Dell FTOS Switches via GVRP
GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) is a standards-based protocol defined in the IEEE 802.1Q specification that provides for automatic VLAN configuration on switches. The Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP) is used by switches supporting GVRP to register/de-register attribute values such … Continue reading

Setup VRRP with Force10 Switches
In this lab I setup Force10 switches with Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP). VRRP is a redundancy protocol used to eliminate a single point of failure between a gateway and its respective hosts within the same subnet. I use three … Continue reading
Setup Telnet Access on Force10 Switches
I am going to use a Force10 S60 switch [FTOS 8.3.3.4] to demonstrate how to setup telnet access. To setup telnet access you first need to set an IP address on either a data port or a managment port so … Continue reading

Setup OSPF on Force10 Switches
For this lab, I use a Force10 E1200 chassis [FTOS 8.3.1.1] and a Force10 S60 switch [FTOS 8.3.3.4]. The objective is to setup a simple OSPF network. Loopback addresses are used to setup test networks.
