Hello friends,
I have no knowledge of switch configuration, so I've come to you for help, for never working with Dell scwitch primarily.
I have a network already running with some computers, servers and an internet router, all connected in a simple 3com switch.
VLAN is not used.
I need to replace the 3com switch with Dell.
Basically it's disconnecting all 3com and connecting to Dell, so I believe.
But I wanted to connect the Dell 3524 to the 3com first and then go migrating the 3com's cabling to the Dell 3524 bit by bit. Even because 3com does not have enough ports for me to connect to the new servers that are installed.
As far as I'm concerned, I know I can use the UPLINK port between the switches or use a crossover cable using standard ports between switches.
Another detail is the DHCP service that is currently used.
The windows server is what provides the IPs.
Does this switch do DHCP management, do I need to disable this switch management? I know we need SonicWall to be uninhabited.
If I install another DHCP server on the network, using this switch, it works always need to configure anything in swtich, right?
Thank you.
