First Time Connecting To The Switch
The Switch supports user-based security that can allow you to
prevent unauthorized users from accessing the Switch or changing
its settings. This section tells how to log onto the Switch.
Note:
The passwords used to access the Switch are
case sensitive; therefore, “S” is not the same as
“s.”
When you first connect to the Switch, you will be presented
with
the first login screen
(shown below).
Press Ctrl+R (hold
down the Ctrl key, press the R key, and release both
keys) to call up the screen, if the
first login
screen does
not appear.
Also
Ctrl+R can be used at any time to
refresh the screen.
