Kingston Technology Bay Networks 2000 - Manual (Page 22)

Assigning a System Identity 15
Procedure
1. Connect the serial cable from the Switch’s serial cable port to a terminal
or a communications port of a PC.
2. Using a terminal emulation program, such as Hyper Terminal, press the Enter
key and you are prompted to enter a user name and password. The factory
default user name and password are:
User name: admin
Password: setup
A menu appears that allows you to enter the following:
•
Management IP Address
•
Management IP Subnet Mask
•
Gateway IP Address (optional)
•
Allow HTTP Management (default)
•
Controlled Crash
3. Follow the screen prompts. Descriptions of the fields required to complete this
procedure are in the section, Startup Configuration Requirements, on page 10.
Allow HTTP Management enables you to manage the Switch via a Web browser.
A Controlled Crash forces the Switch into a hard crash state, which
creates a core dump file that Bay Networks Customer Support personnel
can analyze to help diagnose problems (e.g., the Switch is hung or it does
not respond to PINGs). Do not select "C) Controlled Crash" unless
instructed to do so by Bay Networks.
