Logging In to the Switch

Logging In to the Switch

After the SMA Command Form opens, a Username prompt appears within the Activity pane. Type the Username within the Pending Command to Send field and either press Enter on your keyboard or click the Send button to the right of the Pending Command to Send field.

! In SMA when a user starts a session with an SL100 the switch won’t present the user with a login prompt until its port is active. Clicking the Send Break button activates the port.

After entering the Username, type the password into the Pending Command to Send field and either press Enter on your keyboard or click the Send button to the right of the Pending Command to Send field.

The session will time out within a short period of inactivity. If the session disconnects, close the SMA Command Form and click the SMA button within the Connections section of the Switch window. Re-enter your username and password. The screenshot below shows the messaging when the session begins to disconnect and then disconnects.

Once the session disconnects, a message displays informing you the session has been closed due to inactivity.
