server command prompt.

If the above command works, enable the logs using the dconfig.ini file and collect the logs from the specified folder
location.
Protocol Specific Discovery Issues:
Use Dell troubleshooting tool (gets installed with Essentials) to verify the specific protocol test.
Ensure services are working, and protocol specific ports are not blocked by firewall.
