Enterasys Networks 2H258, 2E253, 2H253, 2H252 manual How to Access, Screen Example

Password Screen

NOTE: You can set the same string as a Security password and SNMP Community Name. This will allow you to access and manage the switch whether you are starting a Local Management session via a Telnet connection or local COM port connection, or by using a network SNMP management application.

If you use a string for the security password and a different one for the SNMP Community Name, the two cannot be used interchangeably to access the switch. The access levels can also be configured to be different.

How to Access

Turn on the terminal. Press ENTER (this may take up to four times, because the COM port of the switch auto-senses the baud rate of the terminal) until the Local Management Password screen displays. Figure 3-2shows the Password screen.
