Perform Initial Software Configuration for the
ACX5448, ACX5448-D, and ACX5448-M Routers
You must perform the initial configuration of the ACX5400 router through the console port using the
command-line interface (CLI).
Before you begin connecting and configuring an ACX5400 router, set the following parameter values on
the console server or PC:
•
Baud Rate—9600
•
Flow Control—None
•
Data—8
•
Parity—None
•
Stop Bits—1
•
DCD State—Disregard
To connect and configure the router from the console:
1. Connect the console port to a laptop or PC using the supplied RJ-45 cable and RJ-45 to DB-9 adapter.
The console (CON) port is located on the management panel of the router.
2. Log in as root. You do not need a password. If the software booted before you connected to the console
port, you might need to press the Enter key for the prompt to appear.

4. Enter configuration mode.

5. Add a password to the root administration user account.
