Logging in to the Text-based UI

Upon connection to the switch or completion of the start-up sequence, you must log

into the MSA Switch to access the management functions. To do this, you must login

as “user” and enter the password assigned to the switch.

The default login variables assigned at the factory are:

Password: ADMIN

To access the text-base UI:

1. At the Login prompt, enter user as the login variable.

>Login: user

2. At the password prompt, enter the assigned password.

>Password: ADMIN

Upon successful login, the main menu is displayed. Figure 2-1 is an illustration

of the initial Login menu.

The main menu contains a brief summary of the status of the switch, including the

model number, the firmware version, and whether it passed its self-test.

NOTE: If the text-based UI from the previous connection was logged out while in the CLI, the

CLI prompt is displayed. To return to the text-menu interface from the CLI prompt, enter exit at

the prompt.
