6. Perform Initial Configuration
a. ONIE Installer Software
1 If the network operating system (NOS) installer is located on
a network server, first connect the RJ-45 Management
(Mgmt) port to the network using Category 5, 5e or better
twisted-pair cable. (Not required if the NOS installer is
located on attached storage.)
2 Boot the switch. Wait for the ONIE software to locate and
execute the NOS installer, and then wait for the installer to
load the NOS software image.
Subsequent switch boots will bypass ONIE and directly run
the NOS software.
Note:
Refer to NOS installer and NOS documentation for
details on software location options and set up for ONIE.
b. Edgecore PicOS software option (for AS4610-54T-O-AC-B only)
1 To make basic switch configuration changes, connect a PC
to the switch's RJ-45 console port using the included
console cable.
2 Configure the PC's serial port: 115200 bps, 8 characters, no
parity, one stop bit, 8 data bits, and no flow control.
Log in to the command-line interface (CLI) using the default
settings: User "admin" with password "pica8". After the first
login, users are forced to change the password.
Note:
For information on initial switch configuration, refer
to the Pica8 website for all system configuration
documentation.

c. Edgecore Cumulus Linux software option (for AS4610-54T-O-
AC-B only)
1 To make basic switch configuration changes, connect a PC
to the switch's RJ-45 console port using the included
console cable.
2 Configure the PC's serial port: 115200 bps, 8 characters, no
parity, one stop bit, 8 data bits, and no flow control.
Log in to the Linux interface using the default
settings: User "cumulus" with password "CumulusLinux!".
Note:
For information on initial switch configuration, refer
to the Cumulus website for all system configuration
documentation. https://docs.cumulusnetworks.com/
7. Connect Network Cables
3
1
1 For RJ-45 ports, connect 100-ohm Category 5, 5e or better
twisted-pair cable.
2
2 Connect DAC cables to the SFP+/QSFP+ slots. Or first install
SFP+/QSFP+ transceivers and then connect fiber optic
cabling to the transceiver ports.
The following transceivers are supported:
◆
40GBASE-CR4
◆
40GBASE-SR4
◆
10GBASE-CR
◆
10GBASE-SR (ET5402-SR)
◆
1000BASE-SX (ET4201-SX)
◆
1000BASE-LX (ET4201-LX)
3
As connections are made, check the port status LEDs to be
sure the links are valid:
◆
On/Blinking Green — Port has a data link. Blinking
indicates network activity.
◆
On/Blinking Amber — Port has a data and PoE link.
Blinking indicates network activity.
8. Hardware Stacking Connection (Optional)
1
Plug one end of a 40GBASE-CR4 DAC cable in the bottom
QSFP+ port of the top unit.
2 Plug the other end of the DAC cable into the top QSFP+ port
of the next unit.
3 Repeat for each unit in the stack.
4 (Optional) Plug one end of a 40GBASE-CR4 DAC cable into
the bottom QSFP+ port on the bottom unit and the other
end into the top QSFP+ port on the top unit.
5 Reboot each switch in the stack to start stack operation.
Note:
Stacking support is dependent on the switch
software. For stacking support information, refer to the NOS
software documentation.
