For a description of how to use the CLI, see
Chapter 14: Using the Command Line Interface
. For a list of
all the CLI commands and detailed information on using the CLI, refer to section
14.5.3 Command Groups
.
2.2.1 Console Connections
The CLI program provides two different command levels — normal access level (Normal Exec) and
privileged access level (Privileged Exec). The commands available at the Normal Exec level are a limited
subset of those available at the Privileged Exec level and allow you to only display information and use basic
utilities. To fully configure the switch parameters, you must access the CLI at the Privileged Exec level.
Access to both CLI levels is controlled by user names and passwords. The switch has a default user name
and password for each level. To log into the CLI at the Privileged Exec level using the default user name
and password, perform these steps:
1. To initiate your console connection, press <
Enter
>. The “User Access Verification” procedure starts.
2. At the Username prompt, enter “root.”
3. At the Password prompt, also enter “Asante.” (The password characters are not displayed on the
console screen.)
4. The session is opened and the CLI displays the “Console#” prompt indicating you have access at the
Privileged Exec level.
2.2.3 Remote Connections
Before accessing the switch’s onboard agent via a network connection, you must first configure it with a
valid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway using a console connection, DHCP or BOOTP protocol.
This switch supports four concurrent Telnet/SSH sessions.
2.3 Setting a Password
If this is your first time logging in to the switch, the following login information is the standard default:
[Default IP Address: 192.168.0.1]
[Default username: root
]
[Default password: Asante
]
You should define new usernames and passwords using the “
username
” command.
Passwords can consist of up to eight alphanumeric characters and are case sensitive. To prevent
unauthorized access to the switch, set the passwords as follows:
1. Open the console interface and type the default user name
root
and password
Asante
to access the
Privileged Exec level.
