3. Operations Required for Initial Installation

3.2 Overview of initial setup operations
This section provides an overview of the operations required when a switch is initially installed.
For detailed operations, see the subsequent sections.
(1) Login
Log in to the switch. Use the initial user ID, which is operator (Because a password is not set for the
operator user, you can log in without authentication).
(2) Setting a password for administrator mode
Use the enable command to specify a password for entering administrator mode. In the initial
installation, this password has not been set. To ensure security, set a password for administrator mode.
(3) Adding a user ID and deleting operator
Create a new user ID.
If you will no longer use the operator login user ID, which is set in the initial installation as the login
user name, we recommend that you delete it after creating a new login user with the rmuser command.
Doing so strengthens security.
(4) Setting the time
Set the time zone and the time. When a switch is initially installed, the time has not been set. Because the
time is important information for collecting failure information, set the exact time.
The operations below are the minimum requirements when a switch is installed.
For operations after the initial operations, see the manuals listed in 4.1 Detailed operations
of AX2400S and AX3600S series switches.
After the time has been set for the switch, the correct time is maintained for 10 days after the
switch has been turned off. After 10 days, you must set the time again the next time you turn
on the switch.
