privileges. The interface does not permit deletion of the currently logged-in user in order to prevent
accidentally deleting all the users with Root privileges.
To log in after you have created a registered user, enter login at a command line prompt:
1. Type your user ID when prompted and press Enter.
2. Type your password when prompted and press Enter.

The passwords used to access the switch module ARE case-sensitive.
Only the user with Read/write privileges can add new user accounts or make changes to existing
user accounts. Before you can update a user account, you must also enter the password (if any) for
that user account.
Complete the following steps to update a user account:
1. Enter the config users passwd command with the name of the account and the new password as
parameters
2. Enter the old password when prompted, or just press enter if the account did not have a
password
To delete a user account simply enter the config users delete command with the name of the
account.
Initial configuration
Some settings must be entered to enable the IXM5414E switch module to be managed from an
SNMP-based Network Management System such as SNMP version 1 or to be able to access the
switch module using the Telnet protocol. The switch module will assign an IP address to the switch
enabling it to be identified on the network using DHCP protocol.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
The IXM5414E switch module will send out a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
broadcast request when it is turned on. The DHCP protocol enables IP addresses, network masks,
and default gateways to be assigned by a DHCP server.
