Step 3

Log into the xStream 40

The xStream 40 is shipped with a default Management port IP address. If you
prepare your network to accept the default address, you can connect the device to
your network and log in using the default address.

IP: 10.60.4.180 Gateway: 10.0.0.1 Netmask: 255.0.0.0


If you want to assign the device a new IP address, you can connect a terminal to the
xStream 40 console port, log in, and assign a different IP address.

1. Connect a PC running terminal emulation software to the xStream 40 Console

port with the supplied DB9 to RJ45 console cable.

2. Launch the terminal emulation software, such as HyperTerminal or minicom,

and set the communication parameters to 115200 baud, 8 data bits, no parity,
1 stop bit, and no flow control.

3. At the login prompt, type admin, and at the password prompt, type netoptics.
4. At the CLI prompt, type config to go into configuration mode.
5. Change the password for the admin account by entering the following CLI

commands:

passwd set password <new-pw>

reenterPassword <new-pw>

commit

where <new_pw> is the password you want to use.
