The boot sequence will appear in the terminal. Press the Enter key at the password prompt. There is no default password for the Switch. Enter the commands to complete your desired tasks. Many commands require administrator-level access privileges. See the Command Line Interface (CLI) Reference Guide on the documentation CD for a list of all commands and additional information using the CLI. Telnet Management Users may also access the switch CLI by using the PC's Command Prompt. To access it from the PC, users must first ensure that a valid connection is made through the Ethernet port of the Switch and the PC, then click Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt on the PC. Once the console window opens, enter the command telnet 10.90.90.90 (depending on configured IP address) and press Enter on the keyboard. The user should be directed to the opening console screen for the CLI of the switch, press the Enter key at the password prompts. There is no default password for the Switch. SNMP-Based Management The Switch can be managed with D-Link D-View or any SNMP-compatible console program. The SNMP function is disabled by default for D-Link managed switches.
