Completing the Installation
Completing the Installation
After installing the switch and making the connections to the network, access the switch management, as described below.
Initial Logon to Switch Management
To initially access switch management from your local PC, terminal, or modem connection, proceed as follows at the displayed startup screen:
1.Enter ro (Read‐Only), rw (Read‐Write), or admin (superuser) for Username.
2.At the Password prompt, press Enter (RETURN).
3.For details on how to configure the switch using the command line interface, refer to the SecureStack A2 Configuration Guide. The CLI commands enable you to set a new password and perform more involved management configurations on the switch. One of many capabilities is to reconfigure the stack, reassigning the Manager function to another switch and configuring the order of Member switches that will take over the stack management functions in case the operating Manager is powered down, malfunctions, or is removed from the stack.
4.After the initial configuration, you can also use WebView (Enterasys Networks’ embedded web server) for configuration and management tasks.
All the guides associated with the switch are available online at: http://www.enterasys.com/support/manuals
Once you are confident that the installation is successful, route and secure your cables. If you require assistance, contact Enterasys Networks using one of the methods described in “Getting Help” on page 1‐6.
