Matrix DFE-Platinum Series Module Installation Guide 3-17

Completing the Installation of a New System

In a new system of DFE‐Diamond modules, one of the installed DFE‐Diamond modules will 
become the management module on chassis power up, and all DFE‐Diamond modules will 
automatically be set to the factory default values. A complete list of the factory default values are 
provided in Chapter 3 of the Enterasys Matrix DFE‐Diamond/Platinum Series Configuration Guide.

After installing all DFE‐Diamond modules into the host chassis and making the connections to the 
network, proceed to the following “

First‐Time Log‐In Using a Console Port Connection

” 

procedure to access the module management startup screen from your PC, terminal, or modem 
connection.

First-Time Log-In Using a Console Port Connection

Start the Command Line Interface (CLI) from the module’s local console port as follows:

1.

Connect a terminal to the local console port as described in “

Connecting to COM Port for 

Local Management

” on page 3‐11. The startup screen, 

Figure 3‐8

, displays.

2.

At the login prompt, enter one of the following default user names:

ro for Read‐Only access,

rw for Read‐Write access, or 

admin for Super User access. (This access level allows Read‐Write access to all modifiable 
parameters, including user accounts.)

3.

Press ENTER.

4.

The Password prompt displays. Leave this string blank and press ENTER. The module 
information and Matrix prompt displays as shown in 

Figure 3‐8

The DFE‐Diamond module is now ready to be configured. For information about setting the IP 
address and configuring Telnet settings for remote access to DFE management, refer to Chapter 3 
in the Enterasys Matrix DFE‐Diamond/Platinum Series Configuration Guide. The CLI commands 
enable you to initially set up and perform more involved management configurations.

with administratively-supplied user and password settings.

By default, the Matrix DFE Series device is configured with three user login accounts: ro for Read-
Only access; rw for Read-Write access; and admin for super-user access to all modifiable
parameters. The default password is set to blank (press ENTER). For information on changing
these default passwords, refer to Chapter 3 in the Enterasys Matrix DFE-Diamond/Platinum Series
