GRT-501 G.SHDSL.bis Bridge Router User’s Manual
Chapter 3 Logon ProcedureThis chapter provides information about how to logon the GRT-501.
Note: After you have completed all necessary setting for GRT-501, make sure to write the new configuration to NVRAM by “write” command and reboot the system, or all of your changes will not take effect.
There are three methods to logon to GRT-501: serial console, Telnet, and web interface. For the first time configuration, perhaps only the serial console mode could be used because applications requiring Internet protocol (IP) communication, such as Telnet and web interface, are not available unless a management IP is configured properly for your local networking environment.
After connecting all the necessary cables described in Chapter 2 Installation, power on GRT-501 and select one of the following procedures to access GRT-501.
Note: It is recommended that only one configuration application is used to setup GRT-501 at any given time, that is, Telnet, serial console and the web management interfaces should not be used simultaneously.
3.1 Serial console
Check the connectivity of the RS-232 cable from your computer to the serial port of GRT-501. Start your terminal access program with VT100 terminal emulation. Configure the serial link with baud rate of 9600, 8 data bits, no parity check, 1 stop bit, and no flow-control, and press the SPACE key until the login screen appears. When you see the login screen, enter the correct user and password and then you can logon to GRT-501.
User: admin
Password: *****
Note: If you have not set any user profile for GRT-501, enter the factory default user “admin” and password “admin” to logon the device.
3.2 Telnet
Make sure the correct Ethernet cable is used for connecting the LAN port of your computer to GRT-501. The LAN LNK indicator on the front panel shall light if a correct cable is used. Starting your Telnet client with VT100 terminal emulation and connecting to the management IP of GRT-501(192.168.0.1 is the default IP), wait for the login screen appears. When you see the login screen, enter the correct user and password and then you can logon to GRT-501.
