Configuration Wizard

The CMC is preset for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). To use a static IP address, you must toggle the CMC
setting from DHCP to a static address by either running the LCD configuration wizard, or by using a management station
and CLI commands. For more information, see the CMC documentation at support.dell.com/manuals.
