Rapier Switch

2.Set the communication parameters

Set the communication parameters on your terminal or terminal emulation program to:

Baud rate: 9600

Data bits: 8

Parity: None

Stop bits: 1

Flow control: Hardware

3.Log in

After the switch has booted, the log in prompt appears. If the log in prompt doesn’t appear, press [Enter] two or three times.

When the switch boots for the first time it automatically creates an account with manager privileges. The account has the log in name “manager” and the password is “friend”.

At the log in prompt, enter the log in name and password.

Log in: manager

Password: friend

The switch’s command prompt appears and you can now configure the switch using the command line interface.

Change the password as soon as possible. Leaving the manager account with the default password is a serious security risk. Make sure that you remember the new password as there is no way to retrieve it if it is lost.

Use the following command to change the account password:

set password

4.Load help files

To access help, enter:

set help=help-filename

where help-filenameis the name of a help file stored in flash. To see a list of files stored in flash, enter:

show file

Help files have an HLP extension. To display a list of help topics, enter:

help

To display help on a specific topic, enter: help topic

Alternatively, type a question mark (?) at the end of a partially completed command to see a list of valid options.

See the Rapier Switch Software Reference for more information on configuring the switch.
