CONNECTING TO THE CLI

The Command Line Interface (CLI) can be accessed through a network interface using a terminal emulation program, such as HyperTerminal®, or through the serial interface from a local computer. Refer to the Emulex® or InSpeed™ Storage Switch Products’ CLI Reference Guide for detailed descriptions of CLI commands and usage.

To connect through a network interface:

Use a network terminal emulation program. For example, if using the telnet command on a Windows workstation, type telnet IPaddress at a command prompt.

To connect through a serial interface:

1.Attach one end of the included RS-232 null modem cable to the computer’s DB-9 serial port, and attach the other end to the switch’s DB-9 serial port.

2.Open a terminal session through a serial terminal emulation program (such as HyperTerminal®) with the appropriate serial port (for example, COM1) and the following serial port parameters:

Bits per second: 19200

Data bits: 8

Parity: None

Stop bits: 1

Flow control: None

3.If using HyperTerminal, press ENTER to receive a prompt.

4.If using the tip command on a UNIX workstation, do the following:

a.View the /etc/remote file and create an alias similar to Hardware but with the serial port parameters above. (Suggested name: Switch)

b.Use the tip command to establish a connection through the created alias, for example tip switch. (For more information, see the tip command Manual page.)

LOGGING IN AND OUT

The CLI does not require login if only viewing basic system information. However, for viewing detailed system information or configuring any switch settings, users must log in to the switch.

To log in to the CLI:

Type the password at the prompt and press ENTER. (The default password is password.)

To log out of the CLI:

Type lo and press ENTER, or exit the terminal session.
