Command Line Interface

The CLI allows configuration of the Management Module, for

example assigning an IP address. It also allows recovery, in an

emergency, to factory defaults.

System Login

To activate the CLI, press [Return]. You are presented with the title

screen, showing the product name, the 3Com copyright and the

software version number, and a

prompt, as shown below:

You must login with the user name

admin

. After you have entered

the user name, you are prompted for a password. The default

password is [Return], so press this to continue.

For security, we recommended that you change the default

password using the PASSWD command. The password you enter is

shown as asterisks (*).

If you enter an invalid user name or password from the login

prompt, the login prompt is redisplayed. For security reasons no

error message is given to indicate what was wrong.

Once you have entered a valid user name and password, the

prompt changes to the following:

You can now enter commands at this prompt.
