10. Connect the Redundant Power Supply (Optional)

AC models of AT-9800 Series switches have a Redundant Power Supply

(RPS) connector on their rear panel, and can be used with an AT-RPS9000

Redundant Power Supply. The AT-RPS9000 must be purchased separately.

Contact your authorised Allied Telesis distributor or reseller for more

information.

11. Install GBICs

Any combination of copper and fibre GBICs can be installed in AT-9812T

and AT-9816GB switches. Slide the GBICs into the GBIC slots. Press each

GBIC firmly into place.

A range of GBICs have been tested and approved for use with AT-9800 Series switches.

Configuring the Switch

Some configuration is necessary to enable the advanced switching capabilities

of the switch. The switch can be configured via the Command Line Interface

(CLI) or Graphical User Interface (GUI).

Using the CLI to configure a switch

1. Connect a terminal or PC to RS-232 (ASYN0)

Using the supplied RS-232 DB9 straight-through cable, connect your

terminal or PC to the RS-232 Terminal Port on the switch’s front panel.

2. Set the communication parameters

Set the communication parameters on your terminal or terminal emulation

program to:

• Baud rate: 9600

• Data bits: 8

•Parity:None

• Stop bits: 1

• Flow control: Hardware

3. Check the power supply

Ensure that the On/Off switch (AC models) or Run/Standby switch (DC

models) is in the On or Run position and that the switch is receiving power

(Power LED lights green).

4. Log in

After the switch has booted, the log in prompt appears. If the log in prompt

doesn’t appear, press [Enter] two or three times.

When the switch boots for the first time it automatically creates an account

with manager privileges. The account has the log in name “manager” and

the password is “friend”.

At the log in prompt, enter the log in name and password.

Password: friend

The command prompt appears and you can now configure the switch

using the command line interface.

Change the password as soon as possible. Leaving the manager account with

the default password is a serious security risk. Make sure you remember the

new password as there is no way to retrieve it if it is lost.

Use the following command to change the account password:

set password
