Starting Dell Networking application
Welcome to Dell Easy Setup Wizard
The setup wizard guides you through the initial switch configuration, and gets
you up and running as quickly as possible. You can skip the setup wizard, and
enter CLI mode to manually configure the switch. You must respond to the next
question to run the setup wizard within 60 seconds, otherwise the system will
continue with normal operation using the default system configuration.
Note: You can exit the setup wizard at any point by entering [ctrl+c].
