1.4 Management and Configuration

The switch is managed using Command Line Interface (CLI) in order to access several different command modes. Entering a question mark (?) at each command mode’s prompt provides a list of commands.

1.4.1 Console Interface

Support for local, out-of-band management is delivered through a terminal or modem attached to the EIA/TIA-232 or USB interface. You can access the switch by connecting a PC or terminal to the console port of the switch, via a serial cable. The default password set on the console line is Asante (it is case-sensitive). The default IP address is 192.168.0.1/24.

Remote in-band management is available through Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and Telnet client. When connecting via a Telnet session (line vty0), the default password is also Asante (case-sensitive).

See Chapter 2 for more information on connecting to the switch.
