if your console is already attached to the serial port than you need to login as Admin user and by default password is also Admin

login Admin
password Admin


Best of luck

hi,

if you are connect via LAN telnet s the default protocol for usage, but if you have license you could use also SSH, in some models its automatically.

Two ways to connect to MP.

1. Serial port
2. LAN

from console, you can also use ctrl+B to go to MP.

And back to console from MP, with the command:

co

[Jupinder Bedi]

when you login into the console , you can use co to see the partitions name . than you need to select the partition name and than provide the login and password of the server. If you want to come back to console again than use CTRL B and if you want to toggle between the partitions use CTRL A

You can use telnet or ssh-2 to connect to LAN console and for serial you need to use hyperterminal through serial cable.
Here it looks like
root@server1:/root_home> telnet server2_gsp
Trying...
Connected to b1_gsp.
Escape character is '^]'.
Local flow control off


MP login: Admin
MP password:

* Your connection is via Telnet. For improved security this MP *
* now supports SSH-2. Telnet can be disabled via the SA command. *
