Hello and Welcome!
This utility will walk you through assigning the IP address for the
switch management CPU. It will allow you to save the changes at the
end. After the session, simply use the newly assigned IP address to
access the Web GUI using any public domain Web browser.
Admin password not defined. Do you want to change the password?

Note: At any point in the setup, you can type Q to abort the program. At
this point, Ezconfig checks to see if there is any change, and
prompts you if the changes should be saved.

Changing the Password

As shown in the the following example, you are prompted to change the admin password. For
security reasons, you should change the default password by typing Y. If you have already
set the password and do not wish to change it again, type N.
Enter new password:********
