Dell EMC Networking N Series Switch will not connect to HiveManager

This article discuss the options needed to connect a Dell EMC NSeries switch to HiveManager Cloud.
 

Dell switch Service Tags often contain letters and, in most cases, show as upper case in the switch CLI. Best practice is to copy the service tag directly from the switch CLI (show system id) and paste it into the HiveManager onboarding wizard.

1. Insure that firewall HTTPS port 443 is open for connections to HiveManager as this is the port that N Series switches will use. 
2. Be sure that the serial numbers are onboarded in HiveManager and that switch service tags are case sensitive.
3. Insure that the EULA has been accepted on the N Series switch. 
   1. configure
   2. eula-consent hiveagent accept
4. Insure that the switch can reach the internet by pinging 8.8.8.8
5. Insure that the switch can resolve DNS by pinging google.com. If not, add a DNS server to the switch. 
   1. configure
   2. ip name-server 208.67.222.222
   3. exit
6. Stop and restart hiveagent
   1. application stop hiveagent
   2. application start hiveagent
