After the Summit has completed the POST, it is operational. Once operational, you can
log in to the Switch and conÞgure an IP address for the default VLAN (named

).
To manually conÞgure the IP settings, perform the following steps:
1
Connect a terminal or workstation running terminal-emulation software to the
console port.
2
At your terminal, press [Return] one or more times until you see the login prompt.
3
At the login prompt, enter the default user name
admin
to log on with administrator
privileges. For example:
login: admin
Administrator capabilities allow you to access all Switch functions.
For more information on Switch security, refer to
Chapter 3
.
4
At the password prompt, press [Return].
The default name,
admin,
has no password assigned. When you have successfully
logged on to the Switch, the command-line prompt displays the name of the Switch
in its prompt.
5
Assign an IP address and subnetwork mask for VLAN
default
by typing
config vlan default ipaddress 123.45.67.8 255.255.255.0
Your changes take effect immediately.

Save your conÞguration changes so that they will be in effect after the next Switch
reboot, by typing
