| 143 | +## Dell XE4 software setup |
| 144 | + |
| 145 | +This procedure describes how to install Defender for IoT software on the Dell XE4. The installation process takes about 20 minutes. After the installation, the system restarts several times. |
| 146 | + |
| 147 | +To install Defender for IoT software: |
| 148 | + |
| 149 | +1. Connect the screen and keyboard to the appliance, and then connect to the CLI. |
| 150 | + |
| 151 | +1. Connect an external CD or disk-on-key that contains the software you downloaded from the Azure portal. |
| 152 | + |
| 153 | +1. Switch on the appliance. |
| 154 | + |
| 155 | +1. Continue by installing your Defender for IoT software. For more information, see [Defender for IoT software installation](../ot-deploy/install-software-ot-sensor.md#install-defender-or-iot-software-on-ot-sensors). |
| 156 | + |
| 157 | +## Next steps |
| 158 | + |
| 159 | +Continue understanding system requirements for physical or virtual appliances. For more information, see [Which appliances do I need?](../ot-appliance-sizing.md) |
| 160 | + |
| 161 | +Then, use any of the following procedures to continue: |
