Configuring the Switch
Both NV-RAM and DRAM are used to store the switch configuration. While the
switch is online, its configuration is saved in DRAM and it accommodates any change
made to the configuration in real time. The contents of DRAM memory are cleared
as soon as the power is turned off. On the other hand, the contents of NV-RAM are
retained after the power-off. When the switch is turned on, the contents of NV-RAM
are duplicated in DRAM memory.
While the switch is being configured, modifications made to the configuration are
first saved in NV-RAM. Then they are written to flash memory to maintain the
same configuration after system power-off.
4.1 Logging into the Switch
The following login screen will appear after logging into the switch. No user
names or passwords are configured prior to product shipment. If this is the first
time you are logging into the switch, it will accept any text string you enter as user
name/password.
To connect to the switch via Telnet, enter your user name and password in the
login screen. If they are not configured yet, enter a new user name and password
that contain at least one alphanumeric character.
4.2 Menu Hierarchy
The management screen of the switch is shown below. For details on each menu
item, please refer to its corresponding subsection.
