HECKING THE
After turning on power to the Summit, the device performs a Power On Self-Test
(POST).
During the POST, all ports are temporarily disabled, the packet LED is off, the power
LED is on, and the MGMT LED flashes. The MGMT LED flashes until the switch has
successfully passed the POST.
If the switch passes the POST, the MGMT LED blinks at a slow rate (1 blink per
second). If the switch fails the POST, the MGMT LED shows a solid yellow light.
For more information on the LEDs, refer to

After the Summit has completed the POST, it is operational. Once operational, you can
log in to the switch and configure an IP address for the default VLAN (named default).

1 Connect a terminal or workstation running terminal-emulation software to the
console port.
2 At your terminal, press [Return] one or more times until you see the login prompt.
3 At the login prompt, enter the default user name admin to log on with administrator
privileges. For example:
login: admin
Administrator capabilities allow you to access all switch functions.
