Configuring Dell PowerConnect 105
Sample Configuration Process
This section provides the basic steps required to establish a remote network management connection
with the switch. This section does not explain the various configurations available on the switch or the
relevant commands.
This section also describes accessing a switch for the first time with the default configuration and
definitions. If a previously entered configuration causes problems, the startup-configuration file —
which is the configuration of switch when powered up — should be erased and the switch rebooted. See
"Device Default Settings."
