SET PASSWORD MANAGER
Syntax
set password manager
Parameters
None.
Description
This command sets the manager’s password. Logging in as manager
allows you to view and change all switch parameters. The default
password is “friend”. A password can be from 1 to 16 alphanumeric
characters. Allied Telesyn recommends avoiding special characters, such
as spaces, asterisks or exclamation points, since some web browsers do
not accept them in passwords. A password is case sensitive.
Example
The following command changes the manager’s password:
set password manager
Follow the prompts to enter the new password.
