Accessing Your
System
You access the Administration Console for your system in one of two
ways:
■
For all systems except the CoreBuilder 9000
— Access the
Administration Console for the first time at the
Administer
level and
press Return at the password prompt (the initial password is null).
Subsequently, every time that you access the Administration Console,
it prompts you for an access level and password, as shown here:
Select access level (read, write, administer):
Password:
The passwords are stored in nonvolatile (NV) memory. You must enter
the password correctly before you can continue.
■
For the CoreBuilder 9000
— On this system, the Enterprise
Management Engine (EME) controls passwords and access levels to
manage the chassis and its installed modules.
To access a module in a CoreBuilder 9000 system, follow these steps:
1
Log in to the EME.
2
Access the module that you want to manage using the EME
connect
command.
Example: To connect to a module in slot 10, subslot 1, enter:
connect 10.1
All modules use subslot 1.
The system displays a prompt similar to the following:
CB9000@slot10.1 [20-E/FEN-TX-L2]
When you have connected to a module, you manage the module from
the Administration Console with the same level of access that you have
on the EME. For example, if you have logged in to the EME with
administer
privileges, you also have
administer
privileges for the module
to which you are connected.
For additional information about the EME, see the
CoreBuilder 9000
Enterprise Switch Getting Started Guide
and the
CoreBuilder 9000
Enterprise Management Engine User Guide.
