			== Configure VLANs ==

			For context on Anvil! networking, please be sure to check the following article first;
			* [[Anvil! Networking]]

			This tutorial assumes you are using two VLANs, one for the [[BCN]]1 and one for the [[IFN]]1. If you're running your [[Storage Network]] and/or [[Migration Network]] through the switch, add VLANs for them as well.

			The two VLANs are;
			* VID1, BCN1, using ports 1~12 on both switches.
			* VID100, IFN1, using ports 13~24 on both switches.

			With this said, lets configure

			== Enable Stacking ==

			{{note\|1=Once the setup is complete, the IP address of the stack with the lowest stack ID will be used to log into the management interface.}}

			Cabling for stacking, using [[SFP+]] cables, is;
			* Switch 1, port 29 -> Switch 2, port 30
			* Switch 1, port 30 -> Switch 2, port 29

			On both switches, set:

			# Make the stacking master static;
			## <span class="code">Management</span> -> <span class="code">Stacking</span> -> <span class="code">Physical Stacking</span>.
			## Change '<span class="code">Stacking Mode</span>' to '<span class="code">Enabled</span>'.

			The save the settings (<span class="code">Save</span> -> <span class="code">Save Configuration</span> -> <span class="code">Apply</span>.

			The changes won't take effect until you reboot, so do that now. Note that if you didn't already, you will be prompted to save changes when you reboot.

The following switches (and firmwares) have been validates to work with the Anvil!:
* DGS-3130-series

Other models will be similar, but this is the tested model.

= Serial Connection =

{{note|1=Depending on your terminal emulator, the <Backspace> key may not work. If it doesn't, try pressing ctrl + h to delete the character to the left of your cursor.}}

You can use screen to connect to the switch. The example below is what you would use on most servers with an on-board serial port. If you have two, then port two would be /dev/ttyS1. If you are using a USB to serial adaptor, then you will use /dev/ttyUSB0 (or if it is a multi-port adapter, /dev/ttyUSB1, etc). If none of these work, you will need to consult your operating system documentation and/or serial port adapter to determine the proper /dev/ttyX device to use.
