NetVanta 1524ST Series Switch P/N 1200560E2/L2
GETTING STARTED
Two configuration methods are available for your NetVanta switch:
• Web-based GUI
• AOS Command Line Interface (CLI)
The GUI lets you configure the main unit settings and provides online guidance and explanations
for each setting. However, using the AOS CLI may be necessary for more advanced
configurations.
ACCESS THE GUI
You may access the web-based GUI from any web browser on your network by following these
steps:
1. Connect the switch to your PC using the ETH 0/0 port on the back of the unit.
2. Set your PC to obtain an IP address automatically (or if using the fixed IP address, set your
PC to 10.10.20.2).
3. Enter the unit’s IP address in your browser address line. The default IP address is 10.10.20.1.
4. You will then be prompted for the username and password (the default settings are admin
and password).
5. The initial GUI screen appears.
ACCESS THE CLI
Access the AOS CLI via the CONSOLE port or a Telnet session. To establish a connection to the
NetVanta switch CONSOLE port, you need the following items:
• VT100 terminal or PC (with VT100 terminal emulation software)
• Straight-through serial cable with a DB-9 (male) connector on one end and the appropriate
interface for your terminal or PC communication port on the other end
1. Connect the DB-9 (male) connector of your serial cable to the CONSOLE port on the rear
panel of the unit.
2. Connect the other end of the serial cable to the terminal or PC.
3. Insert the connector of the provided power cord into the power interface on the rear panel of
the unit, and plug the cord into a standard electrical outlet.
4. Once the unit is powered up, open a VT100 terminal session using the following settings:
9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity bits, and 1 stop bit. Press <Enter> to activate the AOS CLI.
5. Enter enable at the >prompt.
6. Enter the enable password when prompted. The default password is password.

using a 24-bit subnet mask.
4. Enter no shutdown to activate the virtual interface to pass data.
