Changing the Login Password

Change the login password for admin user sessions by follow- ing the steps below:

1Be sure that you have logged into the switch as user type admin (see “Logging In to the Switch” on page 20).

2Enter the keyword password and press Enter.

3Enter your new password at the prompt (refer to the note below).

Note. Typically, the password should be a string of non- repeating characters. The CLI uses the first occurrence of the character series to uniquely identify the password. For example, the password engrengr is the same as engr. A better password might be engr2735.

4You will be prompted to re-enter the password. Enter the password a second time.

Note. Be sure to remember or securely record all new passwords; overriding configured passwords on OS7700 and OS7800 switches is restricted.

New password settings are automatically saved in real time to the local user database; the user is not required to enter an additional command in order to save the password informa- tion. Also note that new password information is retained following a reboot.
