I have a second hand IBM Totalstorage SAN12m1/rebadged sphereon 4300). The person I bought it from does not have the IP/Admin login info. So I connected to the system with a DB9 cable and booted it.
I don't get a > prompt to login - below is the output at the maintenance port. Am I simply missing something or if not is there something I can do to try and get a prompt - or do I have a conversation starter?
Port settings are set as desribed in the IBM/brocade service manual for the model.
Thanks in advance

Well that did not help.
I must not be hitting the Esc key or enter key at the right time as it just scrolls right on by until the snmp trap task - and than stops outputting more information or responding to key strokes.
Pressing and hold either key and than booting the switch only ends up with me crashing putty.
On the bright side I was able to discover the IP address by doing a TCP dump - bad news is still no clue about the password and trying to browse to port 80 get's me a http 400 error.
Any other thoughts?
