Use this procedure, which is a step-by-step utility, to complete initial configuration of network interfaces, the Domain Name Service (DNS), time settings, name services, directory services, storage, and remote support on the appliance using the command line interface (CLI).
Each step begins by printing its help, which can be reprinted by typing help. Use the done command to complete each step. In the examples, the existing settings (obtained from the DHCP server) are checked and accepted by typing done. To customize them, enter each context (datalinks, devices and interfaces) and type help to see available actions for that context.
Before You Begin
Ensure you have configured the system as described in Configuring the System.
This procedure assumes you have just completed configuration of the network interface and are using the same administrative client to access the CLI.
hostname console login: root Password: To setup your system, you will be taken through a series of steps; as the setup process advances to each step, the help message for that step will be displayed. Press any key to begin initial configuration ...

NIS is an older directory protocol that is not very secure, and largely replaced by LDAP. It is not recommended to run NIS and LDAP at the same time because they use the same domain name setting.
