configure the application as follows:

•

In a Windows environment:

Parameter

Bits per second

Data bits

Parity

Stop bits

Flow control

NOTE

Flow control is not supported on the serial consoles when attached to remote terminal servers and must be

disabled on the customer-side remote terminal server and the host-side clients.

•

In a UNIX environment, enter the following string at the prompt:

tip /dev/ttyb -9600

If ttyb is already in use, use ttya -9600 instead.

When the terminal emulator application stops reporting information, press Enter. The following login prompt displays:

Please change passwords for switch default accounts now.

Use Control-C to exit or press 'Enter' key to proceed.

Press Enter to step through a procedure to change the passwords as shown in the following example. To skip modifying the
