that are configured as Login ports.

user ID and password after the fifth login with the default values. Refer to
command useradd on page 9-118
to create a new user ID and password.
Using a Telnet Connection for Login
Logging in using a Telnet connection requires that AI296 has a configured IP address.

of AI296.

If after the fifth login a new ID and password have not been created, AI296
prompts you to create a user ID and password. Use the useradd
command described in Chapter 9: AI296 Commands
to create a user ID
and password.
