Accessing the CLI

Your first form of access to the CLI (after installing the Cuda 12000) is

through COM port 1 located on the front of the management module. Once

you assign the Craft Ethernet port on the management module an IP

address, you can access the CLI remotely through Telnet or SSH.

Use the following procedure to logon to the system management module

and access the CLI environment through COM port 1:

1. Ensure that you have cabled a console or a system running a terminal

emulation program to COM port 1 and configured the correct serial

transmission settings (57,600, 8, 1).

2. Access the system through the terminal emulator. Press

[Enter] until you

see the Linux login prompt.

3. You are then prompted for a login name and password to logon to the

CLI. Enter your login name and password. The system ships with the

following system defaults:

■ Account Name: administrator

■ Password: bas

The Linux prompt is then displayed.

Note that the default login name and password are case-sensitive — all

lowercase.

4. From the command prompt, access the CLI environment by issuing the

following command:

bascli

5. Within the CLI environment, enter your Cuda 12000 login name and

password, as follows:

enable <account name>
