This document guides users through the quick configuration of Huawei S series campus switches. It covers initial setup, including logging in and basic device configurations, as well as more complex network setups like small-sized, small- and mid-sized, and mid-sized campus networks. Specific sections detail data planning, configuring interfaces, VLANs, DHCP, routing, egress routers, and DHCP snooping. For wireless configurations, it explains setting up ACs and APs for CAPWAP packet transmission, assigning IP addresses, and configuring WLAN service parameters, channels, and power. The document concludes with verification steps and saving configurations.
Troubleshooting and error codes
| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
| Cannot log in to the switch. | Check the connection and communication parameters (Table 1 on page 6). |
| Cannot access the Internet after configuration. | Verify the egress router configuration, NAT, and DNS resolution (Section 2.1, page 7). |
| User devices cannot obtain IP addresses. | Check DHCP server configuration on CORE and network adapters on PCs (Section 2.1, page 17). |
| APs are not online. | Run 'display ap all' to check AP states. Ensure they are 'nor' (normal) (Page 29). |
| Cannot clear configurations or restore factory settings. | Back up the configuration file before restoring factory settings (Page 33). |
