If you have forgotten NAM Traffic Analyzer administrator password, you can recover it using one of these methods:

•If other users have account management permission, delete the user for whom you have forgotten the password; then create a new one by logging in as that other user by choosing Admin > Users > Local Database.

•If no other local users are configured other than the user for whom you have forgotten the password, use the NAM rmwebusers CLI command; then enable http or https to prompt for the creation of a NAM Traffic Analyzer user.

Changing Predefined NAM User Accounts on the Switch or Router

The predefined root and guest NAM user accounts (accessible through either a switch or router session command or a Telnet login to the NAM CLI) are static and independent of the NAM Traffic Analyzer. You cannot change these static accounts nor can you add other CLI-based users with the NAM Traffic Analyzer.

Creating a New User

To create a new user:

Step 1 Choose Administration > Users > Local Database.

The GUI displays the users in the local database. Checks indicate the privileges each user has for the functions listed.

Step 2 Click Create.

The GUI displays the New User Dialog Box.

Step 3 Enter the information required to create new user and select each privilege to grant to the user. See Table 5-8for an explanation of user privileges. Table 5-9describes the fields in the New User Dialog Box.
