Fast Ethernet Switching System User's Guide Local Console Management Local Console Management is always done through the RS-232 serial port and requires a direct connection between the DES-5024 and a PC. This type of management is very useful when the network is down and the DES-5024 cannot be reached by any other means. Use Local Console Management to log into the DES-5024 for the first time. You do not need to know the IP address to log into the DES-5024 using Local Console Management. You can change all the settings and configure the DES-5024, set the IP address and perform other management functions. The management session will timeout after five minutes if you have not taken any action. Press enter a few times to refresh the screen. You will have to log in again after a timeout. Follow these steps to begin a management session using Local Console Management: 1. Attach the male end of the RS-232 serial cable provided with the DES-5024 to the RS-232 port located at the front of the DES-5024. 2. Attach the other end to the serial port of a PC or workstation. 3. Run a terminal emulation program using the following settings: • Emulation: VT-100/ANSI compatible • BPS: 19 200 • Data bits: 8 • Parity: None • Stop bits: 1 • Flow Control: None • Enable: Terminal keys 4. Press Enter to display the login panel. 5. Log in using the default User Name and Password. The User Name and Password are case sensitive. • User Name: D-Link • Default Password: D-Link 5.

Local Console Management
Local Console Management is always done through the RS-232 serial port and requires a
direct connection between the DES-5024 and a PC. This type of management is very
useful when the network is down and the DES-5024 cannot be reached by any other
means.
Use Local Console Management to log into the DES-5024 for the first time. You do not
need to know the IP address to log into the DES-5024 using Local Console Management.
You can change all the settings and configure the DES-5024, set the IP address and
perform other management functions. The management session will timeout after five
minutes if you have not taken any action. Press enter a few times to refresh the screen.
You will have to log in again after a timeout.
Follow these steps to begin a management session using Local Console Management:
1.
Attach the male end of the RS-232 serial cable provided with the DES-5024 to the
RS-232 port located at the front of the DES-5024.
2.
Attach the other end to the serial port of a PC or workstation.
