3. The prompt screen will display. The default login is “admin,” with no preset password (just
press the “enter” key).

Switch> will
display. For a
list of main
commands,
type “?” and
press “enter.”
For a list of
subcommands, type a main command (such as “list”) and press “enter.”
After a successful login, type the following command lines to change the device IP, network
mask and gateway address. The “xxx” segments represent values between 0 and 255. Be
sure to enter your IP address information in this form (including the periods separating the
segments), as the configuration program will not accept any other format.
• set eth0 ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
• set eth0 netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
• set eth0 gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Once the new information has been entered, the system will confirm whether the operation
is successful and restart automatically. Record the new address information and store it in
a secure location.
NOTE: With HyperTerminal, the command lines are the same as for Telnet: You can continue
using HyperTerminal along with the instructions given in the following sections. otherwise, log
out by typing “exit” and pressing the “Enter” key. Then, you can configure the switch via an
HTTP Web browser or by using Telnet with menu-driven or command line interfaces.
NOTE: Remember that IP addresses are unique. If an address isn’t available, contact your
Internet service provider to obtain one.
2.1.2 Configuration Using Telnet and SSH
1. Activate your workstation’s
command prompt program
(such as PuTTY) and
access your switch via the
Internet by entering the
correct IP address. NOTE:
The factory default is
192.168.0.254: Connect
directly via the console
port to configure a unique
IP address. A command
prompt program such as
PuTTY will provide you
with the option of choosing
either Telnet or SSH
(Secure Shared). SSH is
an encrypted protocol
that’s ideal for ISP workers
who need to be extra
careful when managing
their switches.
2. Click “open” to display a command prompt screen.
