Configuring the system with the Setup Utility
The Setup Utility prompts you through the configuration process by asking a
series of questions. Answer each question or accept the default by pressing
Enter. Each question shows the default in brackets and the acceptable
parameter options in parenthesis.
The Setup Utility configures the switch with a management IP address and
basic functionality such as enabling FTP, TELNET and TFTP.
After powering up, connecting through the console and logging in with the
default UID (rwa) and Password (rwa), enter the following command:
install
A Welcome to ERS 8000 setup utility message appears saying that
you are about to configure initial configuration of the switch. Part of the
data is stored in the file /flash/boot.cfg and part is stored in the runtime
configuration file flash/config.config.
You are asked if you want to continue (y/n)? Type y for yes.
