This week we managed to get the Raspberry Pi data center connected to the network. Well, sort of. Getting the data center connected required a configuration change on the data center switch. We go over our change ticket, the planning process, gathering information and implementation. There were a lot of steps in this process.

CURRENT STATUS

* Ports on the Data center switch, SW2, have been configured for access mode and vlan 51

* The Raspberry Pi data center is connected to SW2

* Dorothy’s workstation is also connected to SW2

* Next Step: Configuring the network settings for each Raspberry Pi

* Add the IP address and subnetmask

* Add the default gateway

* Add the DNS server

* Test
