Initial Configuration of the RS4000
Before the RS4000 is installed in its permanent location, perform an initial RS4000 configuration to
assign its IP addressing.
For this configuration, place the RS4000 on a Layer 2 subnet (192.168.1.x/24) with a PC or laptop so
a Telnet or SSH connection to the RS4000 can be made using the default IP address 192.168.1.1. This
address is used to initially connect to the RS4000 so you can set networking addresses before the
RS4000 is deployed in its permanent location.
Once the Telnet/SSH conection is made to the RS4000, you will be prompted to log on. Use the default
admin login name with the default password, admin.
Changing the Default System Password and SNMP Community Strings
To change the admin password:
# passwd new_password
Changing password for admin
Re-enter new password: new_password
Password changed.
Caution! As shipped, the system is set with a default password and default SNMP community
strings that allow documented access to the management interfaces. It is strongly recommended that
you change these default settings as soon as possible to prevent unauthorized access to your system.
The commands to perform these changes follow.
