Initial Switch Setup
The following procedure outlines the minimum, basic switch setup dialog con-
figuration required to enable access to the Web UI. If initial setup has already
been performed on your Wireless LAN Switch, you can use the CLI to change
any of the default or previously set parameters.
The setup dialog will prompt you for all necessary information. Defaults are
available for some prompts, and are shown in parenthesis. To accept a default
value shown in parenthesis, press <Enter>. If you make a mistake, you can
either power off, then power on the switch to restart the setup dialog, or you
can proceed to the end of the script where you will have the option to repeat
the script (by entering r).
