PERFORMING INITIAL CONNECTION AND CONFIGURATION

To establish the first console session with the NetScreen-5000 Series system, use a vt100 terminal emulator program through the provided RJ-45/DB9 serial port connector.

Establishing a Terminal Emulator Connection

To establish an initial console session:

1.Plug the DB-9 end of the supplied RJ-45/DB-9 serial cable into the serial port of your workstation. (Be sure that the DB-9 is seated properly and secured with the screws.)

2.Plug the RJ-45 end of the cable into the Console port of the NetScreen-5000 Series system. (Be sure that the RJ-45 clip snaps into the port and is seated properly.)

3.Launch a Command Line Interface (CLI) session between your workstation and the NetScreen-5000 Series system using a standard serial terminal emulation program such as Hilgraeve HyperTerminal (provided with the Microsoft Windows operating system). The settings should be as follows:

•Baud Rate to 9600

•Parity to No

•Data Bits to 8

•Stop Bit to 1

•Flow Control to none

4.At the HyperTerminal window, press the enter key to display the login prompt.

5.At the login prompt, type netscreen.

6.At the password prompt, type netscreen.

Note: Use lowercase letters only. Both login and password are case-sensitive.

7.(Optional) By default, the console times out and terminates automatically after 10 minutes of idle time. To change this timeout interval, execute the following command:

set console timeout number

where number is the length of idle time in minutes before session termination. To prevent any automatic termination, specify a value of 0.
