Extreme Summit XOS Basic Initial Switch Configuration
Those who are familiar with Enterasys switches know that the Extreme XOS CLI is vastly different from the Enterasys line of products however the XOS CLI is the way forward for the future of Extreme, so we might as well get used to the syntax for XOS as opposed to the Enterasys OS or EOS. Below are just a few of the commands that one needs to get a switch off the ground so to speak and get and initial configuration set for connectivity and general housekeeping.
Showing Configuration:
show config
show config detail

See which config is used:

Factory reset:
unconfigure switch – Resets everything back except odometer, clock, and user accounts/passes
unconfigure switch all – Resets everything including users
Default Password:
admin and blank password
Setting Password
configure account admin password

configure snmp sysName name
Set Management IP information:
con mgmt ipa 10.10.10.9/24
con vlan default ipaddress 10.10.10.9/24
Set Default Gateway
configure iproute add default 10.x.x.x

Show Serial Number:
show version
Enable telnet:

Routing:

Reboot the Switch
reboot
Updating XOS Image:
download image 10.10.10.10 summitX-15.4.1.3-patch1-9.xos secondary
download image 10.10.10.10 summitX-15.4.1.3-patch1-9.xos “VR-Default” secondary – use this command if you have assigned the IP address config to the Default VLAN.
install the software after it loads by typing Y when prompted if you want to install the load
When the download and install finishes, instruct the switch to reboot by typing reboot
Selecting boot image:
use image primary
use image secondary
The above is simply a quick cheat sheet that I am currently using and will be adding to. Keep checking back as I add more helpful commands as I run across them or suggest any that you find useful.
