Fast Ethernet Switching System User's Guide Local Console Management Local Console Management is always done through the RS-232 serial port and requires a direct connection between the DES-5016 and a PC. This type of management is very useful when the network is down and the DES-5016 cannot be reached by any other means. Use Local Console Management to log into the DES-5016 for the first time. You do not need to know the IP address to log into the DES-5016 using Local Console Management. You can change all the settings and configure the DES-5016, set the IP address and perform other management functions. The management session will timeout after five minutes if you have not taken any action. Press enter a few times to refresh the screen. You will have to log in again after a timeout. Follow these steps to begin a management session using Local Console Management: 1. Attach the male end of the RS-232 serial cable provided with the DES-5016 to the RS-232 port located at the front of the DES-5016. 2. Attach the other end to the serial port of a PC or workstation. 3. Run a terminal emulation program using the following settings: • Emulation: VT-100/ANSI compatible • BPS: 19 200 • Data bits: 8 • Parity: None • Stop bits: 1 • Flow Control: None • Enable: Terminal keys 4. Press Enter to display the login panel. 5. Log in using the default User Name and Password. The User Name and Password are case sensitive. • User Name: D-Link • Default Password: D-Link 5.
