This setup utility will guide you through the basic configuration of the system. Setup
configures only enough connectivity for management of the system.

when no configuration is present. So setup always assumes system
defaults and not the current system configuration values.

If you create a password that is short and easy to decipher, then your password is rejected. Be
sure to configure a strong password. Passwords are case-sensitive. You must explicitly configure
a password that meets the requirements listed in the "Configuring User Accounts" section in the
Cisco MDS 9000 Family Configuration Guide.
If you are running the switch setup utility for the first-time, it starts automatically. If this is not
the first-time configuration, you are required to enter setup at the system prompt.
If you do not wish to answer a previously configured question, or if you wish to skip answers to
any questions, press Enter. If a default answer is not available (for example, the switch name),
the switch uses what was previously configured and skips to the next question.
