2.

Launch PuTTY on a PC that is connected to the same LAN as the MSA1510i.

3.

Enter the IP address of the MSA1510i management port in the Host Name (or IP address) field.

4.

Verify that the SSH radio button is selected.

5.

Click Open.
The SSH shell opens and you are prompted to log on.

6.

Enter your username and password.

NOTE:

When using SSH, Telnet, or the HP Storage Management Utility (SMU) to connect to the

MSA1510i management port, you are required to log on. The factory default settings for

username and password are both root. The first time you log in to the MSA1510i using the

default username and password, you are immediately prompted to enter a new username

and password. Follow the prompts to set the new username and password. To subsequently

change the username and password from the CLI, use the

set management_login

command.

Accessing the CLI through a Telnet connection

CAUTION:

The Telnet protocol is not a secure method of transmitting data over a network. Because Telnet does not

encrypt data, anyone with the proper knowledge and tools can read information being sent over the

network. For this reason, HP recommends that you use SSH to connect to the MSA1510i over a network,

or use a serial connection to connect to the MSA1510i directly.

NOTE:

Telnet is disabled by default. To enable Telnet, use the SMU. For more information, see the

HP Storage

Management Utility user guide
