3. Set the terminal or the terminal emulation program to the
following settings:
❑
Baud rate: Auto-detect (default 9600 bps; see Note below)
❑
Data bits: 8
❑
Parity: None
❑
Stop bits: 1
❑
Flow control: None
Note
The switch has an auto-detect feature that allows it to
automatically determine the speed of the terminal. You can use this
feature by pressing any key on your keyboard within five seconds
after powering on or resetting the switch. The switch responds by
determining the speed of the terminal and automatically
configuring the speed of the RS-232 Terminal Port accordingly.
Otherwise, the switch uses a default baud rate of 9600 bits per
second (bps). The switch maintains the terminal port speed until
the system is again powered on or reset. The range of the port's
baud rate is 1200 to 115200 bps.
Note
The port settings are for a DEC VT100 or ANSI terminal, or an
equivalent terminal emulator program.
Note
During boot up, the switch displays the following prompt: Press
any key to stop image loading and go to Boot
Prompt. This message is intended for manufacturing purposes
only. (If you do inadvertently display the boot prompt (=>), simply
type boot and press Return to start the switch.)
4. Press the Return key twice.
You are prompted for a password.
5. To view and configure all of the switch's operating parameters,
enter the login name "manager". The default password is friend. To
only view the parameter settings, enter the login name "operator".
The default password is operator. (The passwords are case-
sensitive.)
