DES-3526 / DES-3526DC Fast Ethernet Layer 2 Switch
Make sure the terminal or PC you are using to make this connection is configured to match these
settings.
If you are having problems making this connection on a PC, make sure the emulation is set to VT-100.
You will be able to set the 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, there is no user name or
password and therefore just press enter twice to access the command line interface.
