Express setup on Catalyst 9300

[bhootn960]

I'm playing around with a Catalyst 9300 switch. Some videos suggest that if I do a factory reset (or being new) it should have a feature express setup, which should be available by accessing the web GUI. However, I can't for the life me, get it to even give me an IP address.

I have tried using a brand new Catalyst 9300, and connected a cable from a client machine and to port number 1 - and I still can't get a IP

  - You won't have GUI access , after factory reset , but that is   a race condition w.r.t having an IP address.
     Look at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mX6iQw0OCdc for factory reset and initial configuration afterwards.

     For assigning an IP address , add this to the configuration     https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/catalyst9300/software/release/16-10/configuration_guide/int_hw/b_1610_int_and_hw_9300_cg/configuring_ethernet_management_port.html#reference_blp_wpr_gbb

      To be changed accordingly of  course (IP address and netmask) ; this becomes the address for managing
      the switch through Gi0/0
