ASSWORDS
If this is your first time to log into the CLI program, you should define new
passwords for both default user names using the “username” command,
record them and put them in a safe place.
Passwords can consist of up to 8 alphanumeric characters and are case
sensitive. To prevent unauthorized access to the switch, set the passwords
as follows:
1. Open the console interface with the default user name and password
“admin” to access the Privileged Exec level.
2. Type “configure” and press <Enter>.
3.
Type “username guest password 0 password ,” for the Normal Exec
level, where password is your new password. Press <Enter>.
4. Type “username admin password 0 password ,” for the Privileged Exec
level, where password is your new password. Press <Enter>.
Username: admin
Password:
CLI session with the DG-GS4850S/DG-GS4826S* is opened.
To end the CLI session, enter [Exit].

* This manual covers the DG-GS4826S and DG-GS4850S switches. Other than the
difference in the number of ports, there are no significant differences. Therefore
nearly all of the screen display examples are based on the DG-GS4826S.

IP
A
DDRESS
You must establish IP address information for the stack to obtain
management access through the network. This can be done in either of the
following ways:
u
Manual — You have to input the information, including IP address and
subnet mask. If your management station is not in the same IP subnet
as the stack's master unit, you will also need to specify the default
gateway router.
u
Dynamic — The switch can send IPv4 configuration requests to BOOTP
or DHCP address allocation servers on the network. An IPv6 link local
address for use in a local network can be dynamically generated as
described in "Obtaining an IPv6 Address" on page 85 .
The current software does not support DHCP for IPv6, so an IPv6 global
unicast address for use in a network containing more than one subnet
can only be manually configured as described in "Assigning an IPv6
Address" on page 81 .
