For information about segmenting hubs using the network management module for the hub, see the ub Stack Management: Controlling Hubs in the Hub Stack" section later in this chapter. NOTE: Hub segmentation is controlled by the master hub. When the master hub completes its initialization, it will restore any prior segmentation of the hubs. Therefore, if you are using a switch or bridge to join different segments, be sure to enable the IEEE 803.1d Spanning Tree Protocol to prevent temporary network loops Logging in to the Hub Console The DFE-2600 series master hubs support user-based security that allows you to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the hub or changing its settings. This means that before you can access the functions of the hub, you will need to first log into the hub, providing a password. This section tells how to log onto the hub, and how to change your password. Logging In When you first connect to the hub, it will display the login screen: Master Hub Setup and Management 41

Master Hub Setup and Management

For information about segmenting hubs using the network management mod-
ule for the hub, see the
ub Stack Management: Controlling Hubs in the
Hub Stackā€ section later in this chapter.
NOTE:
Hub segmentation is controlled by the master
hub.
When the master hub completes its ini-
tialization, it will restore any prior segmentation
of the hubs.
Therefore, if you are using a
switch or bridge to join different segments, be
sure to enable the IEEE 803.1d Spanning Tree
Protocol to prevent temporary network loops

to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the hub or changing its settings.
This means that before you can access the functions of the hub, you will need
to first log into the hub, providing a password.
