that are configured as Login ports.

user ID and password after the fifth login with the default values. Refer to
command

Using a Telnet Connection for Login

If after the fifth login a new ID and password have not been created, AI232
prompts you to create a user ID and password. Use the useradd
command described in
Chapter 8: AI232 Commands to create a user ID
and password.
