Quick Steps for Logging Into the Switch
The following procedure assumes that you have set up the switch as described in your OmniSwitch 10K
Getting Started Guide and Hardware Users Guide. Setup includes:
• Connecting to the switch via the console port.
• Setting up the Ethernet Management Port (EMP).
• Enabling (or “unlocking”) management interfaces types through the aaa authentication command for
the interface you are using. For detailed information about enabling session types, see Chapter 8,
“Managing Switch Security.”
1 If you are connected to the switch via the console port, your terminal will automatically display the
switch login prompt. If you are connected remotely, you must enter the switch IP address in your remote
session. The login prompt then displays.
2 At the login prompt, enter the admin username. At the password prompt, enter the switch password.
(Alternately, you may enter any valid username and password.) The switch’s default welcome banner will
display, followed by the CLI prompt.
