Overview
This chapter discusses the administrative procedures that the Super
Administrator performs to get the RCM Series of KVM Over IP Switch set up
for the first time.
First Time Setup
Once the RCM Series of KVM Over IP Switch has been cabled up, the Super
Administrator needs to set the unit up for user operation. This involves setting
the network parameters, and changing the default Super Administrator login.
The most convenient way to do this for the first time is from the local console.
Note: For remote methods of setting up the network, see IP Address
Determination, page 265.
After the local console has been connected, and the RCM Series of KVM Over
IP Switch turned on, a login prompt appears on the console monitor:
Since this is the first time you are logging in, use the default Username:
administrator; and the default Password: password.
Note: For security purposes, the system will prompt you to change the login
password. The password must be different from your login password.
