Configuring the N-Series Switch

N-Series switches delivered from the factory by default have no IP address configured and DHCP enabled. For example, the configuration from a N1524 switch booted from default settings:

console#show running-config
!Current Configuration:
!System Description "Dell Networking N1524, 6.2.5.3, Linux 3.6.5"
!System Software Version 6.2.5.3
!
configure
stack
member 1 1 ! N1524
exit
interface vlan 1
ip address dhcp
exit
snmp-server engineid local 800002a203f48e3807701e
exit
console#

After the N-Series switch reboots, you can configure the initial setup using the Easy Setup Wizard. The wizard guides you through the initial switch configuration and gets you up and running as quickly as possible.

You can exit the setup wizard at any point by entering Ctrl Z.

You can skip the setup wizard, and enter CLI mode to manually configure the switch.

You must respond to this question to run the setup wizard within 60 seconds:
Would you like to run the setup wizard (you must answer this question within 60 seconds)? (y/n) y
Otherwise, the system continues with normal operation using the default system configuration. Reset the switch with an empty startup configuration to rerun the Dell Easy Setup Wizard.

For how to configure the N-Series switch with the Dell Easy Setup Wizard, see the Dell Getting Started Guide for your switch.
