Password:
3Press the Return key.
A null string is entered, which is the default password.
After obtaining Network Manager privilege, proceed to the next section to change
the Network Manager password.
Changing the Password Changing the Network Manager password prevents unauthorized users from
accessing the bridge/router. You should change the password immediately after you
log on for the first time.
The privilege level determines which commands and parameters a user can access.
Each level has its own password. You must set the Network Manager password and
the User password to be the same in order to provide equal levels of security. If only
the Network Manager password is set, any other user receives User level privileges.
Users with NetMgr privileges can lower their privileges without a password. Users
with User privileges cannot raise their privileges. To raise privileges after lowering
them, you must enter the password again.
The Network Manager password must be set before the User password. The User
password must be cleared before the Network Manager password.
To change the password, follow these steps:
1At the NETBuilder prompt (NETBuilder #), enter:
SysPassWord
When a menu is displayed, Select 1, Set Network Manager Privilege Password.
2Enter the new Network Manager password. Retype it when prompted to do so.
You are returned to the SysPassWord menu.
3Enter 2.
4Enter the new User password and retype it when prompted to do so.
5Press the Return key to exit the SysPassWord menu and return to the NETBuilder
prompt (NETBuilder #).
Go to the next section to set the time and date on the system.
Setting the Time and Date To set the time and date on your system, use:
SET -SYS DATE = YY/MM/DD HH:MM[:ss]
For example, to set the date and time to January 10, 1995, 9:40 a.m., enter:
SET -SYS DATE = 1995/1/10 09:40
