emulation by clicking on the File menu in you HyperTerminal window, clicking on Properties in the drop-down menu, and then
clicking the Settings tab. This is where you will find the Emulation options. If you still do not see anything, try rebooting the
Switch by disconnecting its power supply.
Once connected to the console, the screen below will appear on your console screen. This is where the user will enter commands to
perform all the available management functions. The Switch will prompt the user to enter a user name and a password. Upon the
initial connection, the user name and password are not required. These can be changed or deleted later.
