Onboard your switch with
ExtremeCloud™. Log in or create your XIQ administrator account in
order to select your switch operating system with XIQ at
https://extremecloudiq.com.
Switch Engine
is the default operating system for the 5320 Series. You
can change the switch OS from the Bootloader menu on initial activation only by
completing the following steps:
-
Using a terminal emulator such
as PuTTY or TeraTerm, connect to the switch using the serial port connection.
Be sure that your serial
connection is set properly:
- Baud rate: Baud rate:
115200
- Data bits: 8
- Stop bit: 1
-
Once the switch is powered on,
after seeing the "5320 Boot Menu" screen, press the [spacebar] key
within 30 seconds.
-
Use the down-arrow key to
select Change the
switch OS to Fabric Engine, then select Enter.
The switch will install Fabric Engine, then reset. Once the NOS is selected, the
"5320 Boot Menu" will only wait for 3 seconds before continuing.
To change the switch OS if you take
no action during the initial boot, see Change the Switch OS via the Startup Menu.
