No default password is assigned to the CLI. For
additional access security, assign a password.
7
Before attaching equipment to the device, you need to
configure an interface IP address to the subnet on
which it will be located. Initial IP address configuration
is performed using the CLI with a direct serial
connection. Subsequent IP address configuration can be
performed using the Web management interface.
8
Once you power on the device and assign IP addresses,
the system is ready to accept network equipment.
9
Test IP connectivity to other devices by pinging them
and tracing routes.
10
Continue configuring the device using the CLI or the
Web management interface. You also can use IronView
Network Manager to manage the device.

Secure access to the device.
Preparing the installation site
Cabling infrastructure
Ensure that the proper cabling is installed at the site. Refer to "Cable
specifications" on page 53 for a summary of supported cabling types and their
specifications.
Installation location
Before installing the device, plan its location and orientation relative to other
devices and equipment. Switches can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment
rack that meets EIA-310D standards, or on a flat surface. Be sure to follow the
guidelines below when choosing a location.
The site should meet the following requirements:
v Maintain temperatures within 0 to 40⁰ C (32 to 104⁰ F) and humidity levels
