Accessing Local Management

5.4ACCESSING LOCAL MANAGEMENT

Access to Local Management is controlled through the Password screen Figure 5-3. Whenever a connection is made to the 2E4X-27 the Password screen displays. Before continuing, the user must enter a password (community name) which is compared to the previously stored passwords. The level of access allowed the user depends on the password. To set or change passwords, refer to Section 5.8. The following steps describe the procedure to access Local Management.

1.Turn on the terminal. Press ENTER (this may take up to four times, because the COM port auto-senses the baud rate of the terminal) until the 2E4X-27 Local Management Password screen displays. It is the automatic line speed seeking feature of the port that makes it necessary at times to press ENTER several times.
