Logging in to the Text-based UI
Upon connection to the switch or completion of the start-up sequence, you must log
into the MSA Switch to access the management
functions. To do this, you must login
as “user” and enter the password assigned to the switch.
The default login variables assigned
at the factory are:
Login: user
Password: ADMIN
To access the text-base UI:
1. At the Login prompt, enter user as the login variable.
>Login: user
2. At the password prompt, enter the assigned password.
>Password: ADMIN
Upon successful login, the main menu is displayed. Figure 2-1 is an illustration
of the initial Login menu.

The main menu contains a brief summary of the status of the switch, including the
model
number, the firmware version, and whether it passed its self-test.
NOTE: If the text-based UI from the previous connection was logged out while in the CLI, the
CLI prompt is displayed. To return to the text-menu interface from the CLI prompt, enter exit at
the prompt.
