Creating a User Account
You can create up to 27 user accounts.
Only users that have administrator access can perform the following tasks:
■View the running configuration and startup configuration.
■Copy text files to or from a TFTP server.
■Download BOOT, APP1, and APP2 images to the switch.
■Update the software on a module.
■Access the Load MIB.
* Note: To log in to the ATM Uplink module, a user must:
• Have read-write access to the Modules and Ports
Management features.
• Enter Privileged mode or Global Configuration mode to
enter the session <slot number> command.
In earlier versions of application software, you could log in to
the ATM Uplink module from User mode. This change in
functionality prevents unauthorized users from logging in to the
ATM Uplink module.
