Reconfigure a terminal server 700

I have a terminal server 700 that wasn't being used on our network, I want to use the terminal server with it's existing ip but when I telnet to it I get connected and the # appears, What command do I use so I can start changing the config of the TS and its ports.

Please can someone respond ASAP thanks,

Gerry G.

Gerry,

The # sign is the server's prompt for a local logon password. The factory default local password is "ACCESS". The factory default privileged password is "SYSTEM". If the previous manager of the device new what he was doing, those probably are not the current passwords.

Hi Gerry

I don't use DS 700 anymore, but I try to give you some ideas as far as I remember....

After the # prompt... enter the word access

# access
some announcemnet will be here

Enter your username> enter-here-something

after this you should have the local> prompt

local >

Then you can use the terminalservers help

local> help


help text apears

hope that helps for starting

Regards

Re: Reconfigure a terminal server 700

If the access and priv-password had been changed, you can reset them to factory settings by pressing the reset button at the back and inserting the power cord.

I think that "ASAP" was a couple of hours
earlier, on the Tru64 forum.
