Issue with PC6248
I recently purchased a PC6248 which had been reset to factory defaults. I was able to use a console cable to run the setup wizard, but afterwards I am unable to get link on any of the front ethernet ports. I feel like I'm missing something simple, but this is a lot different than the PC5324 I have experience with.

The switch does have a stacking module installed, but there are no cables and I want to run this as a standalone switch.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you Charles for your response!
I found this resolution that I am following now: https://www.dell.com/community/Networking-General/Dell-Powerconnect-6248-Interface-configuration-problem/td-p/3931837
However, I also learned the switch has PowerConnect Limited Lifetime support until 2040, so I think I’ll get it figured out eventually..

Hello emlpro,
We don't usually get into New configuration on the forum. We have Deployment Services that can be contracted through Sales if you need. I will see if I can find anything for you.
What do you get from these commands:
show interfaces configuration
show interfaces detail
Did you use the Easy Setup Wizard?
It should only displays when the system boots up without a configuration or with only the default factory configuration.
If you need, you can return to default config using #delete startup-config, then reboot.
