5. When these parameters are set, the Matrix E1 startup screen will display.
2.1.4.1Configuring the Modem to Not Send Login Requests
If the modem attempts to auto-connect or sends requests to the console port, the console port will
treat these actions as login requests, and will fail the login and lockout the console session as a
result.The modem should be configured to not send requests to the console port when attached.
Suggested settings are below. Often, there is a set of dip-switches on the bottom of the modem that
can be adjusted, as in the following example:

Another solution, if the modem cannot be configured to completely suppress traffic to the console
port at start-up, would be to configure the E1 lockout retry count to a higher value or disable it
altogether. You would do this using the set system lockout attempts command as described in
Section 3.2.1.8.

3.1.2Command Defaults Descriptions
Each command description in this guide includes a section entitled “Command Defaults” which
contains different information than the factory default settings on the device as described in
Table 3-1 and Table 3-2. The command defaults section defines CLI behavior if the user enters a
command without optional parameters (indicated by square brackets [ ]). For commands without
optional parameters, the defaults section lists “None”. For commands with optional parameters, this
section describes how the CLI responds if the user opts to enter only the keywords of the command
syntax. Figure 3-1 provides an example.

Starting and Navigating the Command Line Interface (CLI)
3.1.6Starting and Navigating the Command Line Interface (CLI)
3.1.6.1Using a Console Port Connection
NOTE: By default, the Matrix E1 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 a blank
string (carriage return). For information on changing these default settings, refer to
Section 3.2.1.
Once you have connected a terminal to the local console port as described in Chapter 2, the initial
startup screen, Figure 3-2, will display. You can now start the Command Line Interface (CLI) by
•Using a default user account, as described in Section 3.1.6.2, or
•Using an administratively-assigned user account as described in Section 3.1.6.3.
3.1.6.2Logging in with a Default User Account
If this is the first time your are logging in to the Matrix E1 Series device, or if the default user
accounts have not been administratively changed, proceed as follows:
1. At the Username login prompt, enter one of the following default user names:
•ro for Read-Only access,
•rw for Read-Write access.
•admin for Super User access.
2. Press ENTER. The Password prompt displays.
3. Leave this string blank and press ENTER.The notice of authorization and the Matrix prompt
displays as shown in Figure 3-3.
NOTES: Display messages shown in Figure 3-2 about the device generating keys
pertain to Secure Shell (SSH) authentication. These lines will only display on the startup
screen the first time the device is powered on, or after NVRAM has been cleared.
Once the device has been configured for routing as described in Section 3.3, the
message “cannot open startup.cfg file” will no longer display. The startup.cfg file stores
the running configuration for the device when operating in router mode. This file does
not affect switch mode operation.

Downloading a Firmware Image
3.2.3Downloading a Firmware Image
You can upgrade the operational firmware in the Matrix E1 without physically opening the device
or being in the same location. The software storage sector in the flash memory of the device is
reprogrammed, allowing you to easily download firmware feature enhancements and problem fixes
to the device from a local or remote location.
Firmware can be downloaded to the device in two ways:
•Via TFTP download. This is the recommended firmware upgrade method. It uses a TFTP server
connected to the network and downloads the firmware using the TFTP protocol. A TFTP
download is much faster than a serial download, requiring only a few seconds, and can be used
to upgrade a device that is not physically in the area. For details, refer to Section 3.2.3.2.
•Via the serial (console) port. This procedure is an out-of-band operation that copies the firmware
through the serial port to the device. This operation takes approximately three minutes and
requires minimal configuration. Serial console download has been successfully tested with the
following applications:
•SecureCRT Version 3.3.2,
•HyperTerminal Copyright 1999
Any other terminal applications may work but are not explicitly supported. For details, refer
to Section 3.2.3.1.
3.2.3.1Downloading via the Serial Port
A serial download is the easiest method to upgrade the device firmware, requiring the least amount
of equipment and configuration.
To download device firmware via the serial (console) port, proceed as follows:
1. With the console port connected, reset the device by powering the device off and then on.
2. As the device is booting up, a message displays indicating POST Version, followed by “Starting
application”. At this point, reset the device again.
3. When the Power On Self Test (POST) begins, press ESC to bypass it. The following message
displays:
