Powering up the switch and logging in After you create the serial connection using the steps in "Creating a serial connection" on page 17, provide power to the switch by completing the steps below. Note: Power is supplied to the switch as soon as the power supply is connected to a power source, you should then see POST messages. 1. Connect the power cord to the power supply and the power source. Attention: Ensure that the power cable is routed so that it is not pinched or exposed to stress when the switch is moved on the slide-rails. Ensure that the cord has a minimum service loop of six inches available at the connection to the switch. The power supply LED ( 8 in Figure 8 on page 17) lights up green, and the switch begins running a Power On Self-Test (POST). The POST should complete and the switch will complete the boot process in about three minutes. 2. After POST is complete, verify that the System Status 9 and Power Status 8 LEDs are green (see "Interpreting LED activity" on page 21 for more details). 3. Using a serial connection, when the terminal emulator application stops reporting information, press Enter to display the login prompt. 4. Log in using the administrative account. The logon is admin and the default password is password. You can create up to two simultaneous admin sessions and four user sessions. For details, refer to the Brocade Fabric OS Administrator's Guide and the Brocade Fabric OS Command Reference Manual. You will be prompted to change the default passwords on the switch during initial login; you can bypass this by pressing Ctrl-C. Setting the IP address Replace the default IP address and related information with the information provided by your network administrator. By default, the IP address is set to 10.77.77.77. 1. Type ipAddrSet at the terminal emulator application prompt, as shown in the following example. 2. Enter the requested information as prompted. In this example, the items in bold are the new values that were entered. Table 5. Example of changing an IP address switch:admin> ipAddrSet Ethernet IP Address [192.168.1.1]:10.32.53.47 Ethernet Subnetmask [255.255.255.0]:255.255.240.0 Fibre Channel IP Address [0.0.0.0]: Fibre Channel Subnetmask [0.0.0.0]: Gateway IP Address [0.0.0.0]:10.32.48.1 Set IP address now? [y = set now, n = next reboot]:y IP address being changed... Committing configuration...Done. switch:admin> 3. Optionally, verify that the address was correctly set by entering the ipaddrShow command at the prompt. 4. Record the IP address on the label on the port side of the chassis. 5. If the serial port is no longer required, log out of the serial console, remove the serial cable, and replace the plug in the serial port. 18 SAN16B-2 Installation, Service, and User's Guide
