Connect to the switch using the serial connection
To log in to the switch through the console port:
1. Verify that the switch has completed POST. When POST is
complete, the port status and switch power and status LEDs
return to a standard healthy state; for information about LED
signals, see “Interpreting LED activity” on page 3-2.
2. When the terminal emulator application stops reporting
information, press Enter to display the login prompt.
3. Log in using the administrative account; the login is "admin" and
the default password is "password". You are prompted to change
the default passwords on the switch during initial login; you can
bypass this by pressing Ctrl-C.
For more information refer to the Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide and
the Fabric OS Command Reference Guide.
