Limited CLI Config Options - 1052 Switch

Hi All,

Recently acquired a new location and they run Dell Switches.  We are a Cisco shop primarily but for now we need to keep these Dell switches in production.  I went into the switch via telnet and priv level 15, but the command options are very limited.  Surely something is wrong. This can be all the configuration options available right?

Global:

clear
configure
copy
crypto
debug-mode
delete
dir
exit
help
ping
reload
show
write

Config:

crypto
do
end
exit
help
interface
ip
spanning-tree
username
vlan

    Seems I've answered my own question.

    Seems the X series switches can't be configured via the CLI beyond a handful of commands.

    That is garbage.  Will have to get these units replaced asap.

    Necroing this because I can't see much mentioned anywhere else.

    I'm in the same situation - I can't even seem to configure interfaces properly via CLI. Looks like this series of switches is GUI only, really.
