First Time Connecting to the Switch
The Switch supports user-based security that can allow you to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the Switch or changing
its settings. This section tells how to log onto the Switch.
Upon first connection to the Switch, the user will be presented with the first login screen (shown below).
Press Enter in both the Username and Password fields. You will be given access to the command prompt DES-6500:4#, as shown
below:
There is no initial username or password. Leave the Username and Password fields blank.

NOTE: The passwords used to access the Switch are case-sensitive;
therefore, "S" is not the same as "s."
NOTE: Press Ctrl+R to refresh the screen. This command can be used at
any time to force the console program in the Switch to refresh the console
screen.
