4-1-1. Login
The command-line interface (CLI) is a text-based interface. User can access the CLI through
either a direct serial connection to the device or a Telnet session. The default values of the
managed switch are listed below:
Username: admin
Password: admin
After you login successfully, the prompt will be shown as “
#
“ if you are the first login
person and your authorization is administrator; otherwise it may show “
$
“. See the following
two figures. The former means you behave as an administrator and have the access right of the
system. As to the latter, it means you behave as a guest and are only allowed to view the system
without the permission to do any setting for this switch.
