Accessing the Setup Wizard
If you cannot connect to the Dell SonicWALL NSA E6500 or the 
Setup Wizard does not display, verify the following 
configurations:
• Did you correctly enter the Dell SonicWALL NSA E6500 
management IP address in your Web browser? 
• Are the Local Area Connection settings on your computer set 
to use DHCP or set to a static IP address on the 
192.168.168.x/24 subnet?
• Do you have the Ethernet cable connected to your computer 
and to the X0 (LAN) port on your appliance?
• Is the connector clip on your network cable properly seated in 
the port of the security appliance?
• Some browsers may not launch the Setup Wizard 
automatically. In this case:
• Log into the NSA E6500 using “admin” as the user name 
and “password” as the password. 
• Click the Wizards button on the System > Status page. 
• Select Setup Wizard and click Next to launch the Setup 
Wizard. 
• Some pop-up blockers may prevent the launch of the 
Setup Wizard. You can temporarily disable your pop-up 
blocker, or add the management IP address of your 
SonicWALL appliance (192.168.168.168 by default) to 
your pop-up blocker's allow list.
