68 CHAPTER 3: SETTING UP FOR MANAGEMENT
Viewing IP Information via the Console Port
To view the automatically-allocated IP information using the command
line interface:
1 Connect your switch to the network using the Ethernet cable. As soon as
a network connection is made the switch begins the automatic IP
configuration process.
The automatic IP configuration process usually completes within one
minute.
2 The command line interface login sequence begins as soon as the switch
detects a connection to its console port.
If the login prompt does not begin immediately, press Return a few times
until it starts.
3 At the username prompt, type admin and press Return. Press Return
again at the password prompt. If you have logged on correctly,
<500G-EI> or <5500-xx> is displayed (where xx is either SI or EI) as
shown in the example in
Figure 30.

4 Enter display ip interface br to view a summary of allocated IP
addresses.
You can now set up your switch management method. See “Methods of
Managing a Switch” on page 56 to determine which method is best for
you.
If you do not intend to use the command line interface through the
console port to manage the switch, you can logout, disconnect the serial
cable, and close the terminal emulator software.
