Configuring Accounting for Administrative Users 59

 

Although MSS allows you to configure a user password for the special

 

“last-resort” guest user, the password has no effect. Last-resort users can

 

never access a WX in administrative mode and never require a password.

Adding and Clearing

Usernames and passwords can be stored locally on the WX switch. 3Com

Local Users for

recommends that you enforce console authentication after the initial

Administrative Access

configuration to prevent anyone with unauthorized access to the console

 

from logging in. The local database on the WX switch is the simplest way

 

to store user information in a 3Com system.

 

To configure a user in the local database, type the following command:

 

set user username password [encrypted] password

 

For example, to configure user Jose with the password spRin9 in the local

 

database on the WX switch, type the following command:

 

WX1200# set user Jose password spRin9

 

success: User Jose created

 

To clear a user from the local database, type the following command:

 

clear user username
