Logging into the NAM
There are two levels of access on the NAM, each with different privileges:
•Guest—Read-only CLI access (default password is guest)
•Root—Full read-write access (default password is root)
Note The root account uses the # prompt; the guest account uses the > prompt.
To log into the NAM, follow these steps:
Step 1 Log into the Catalyst 6000 family switch using the Telnet connection or the console port connection.
Note To allow remote Telnet sessions, use the exsession on command.
Step 2 Establish a console session with the NAM at the CLI prompt, using the session mod command:
