The Setup Wizard provides an easy to use Web-based method of configuring the
basic settings for a new filer.
The configuration method using the
setup
command is different from the Setup
Wizard configuration method in these ways:
Uses command-line installation and configuration commands to install and con-
figure the new filer
Provides limited on-line help
The Setup Wizard uses the network and a Web browser to perform the initial basic
setup for filers, eliminating the need for the command-line setup. The Setup Wizard
contains context-sensitive help for each field on each page.
After you finish the basic configuration, you can use the Web-based FilerView tool
to complete other types of configurations you might need on this filer. FilerView also
uses the network and a Web browser to perform general management tasks.

The Setup Wizard needs an IP address to begin the configuration process, which you
can obtain using either of the following methods:
An existing Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server on your network
during initial boot of the new filer.
If the filer cant find or obtain an IP address from the DHCP server, the normal
setup
script, using a console connected to the filer, prompts you for several
pieces of information, including an IP address, and then asks whether you want
to use the Setup Wizard. This method works with any filer; however, you must
have a console connected to the filer for the initial few pieces of setup
information.
