4-1-1. Login
The command-line interface (CLI) is a text-based interface. The user can
access the CLI through either a direct serial connection to the device or a Telnet
session. The default values of the managed switch are listed below:
Username: admin
Password: admin
After logging in successfully, the prompt will be shown as “#“ if you are the
first person logged in and your authorization is administrator; otherwise it will show
“$“. Please see the following two figures. The former means you have been
authenticated as an administrator and have full access rights on the system. The
latter means you have guest access rights and are only allowed to view the system,
without permission to apply any settings to this switch.
