B. The SCCP IP address is configured after initial setup is complete, not during the first-time config utility run.
C. Port lockdown settings for the SCCP are an advanced network configuration option made after the system is accessible via management, not during initial setup.
F. Port lockdown settings for the management port are not presented in the initial config utility; that utility is limited to the IP address and netmask needed for basic access.
