Console Login Configuration
6-14 Management Setup Menu Screens
6.5 CONSOLE LOGIN CONFIGURATIONUse the Console Login Configuration screen (Figure6-10) to restrict management access based on
the specified user names and passwords, or to set the invalid password threshold and time-out.
There are two user types: Administrator and Guest. Only the Administrator has write access for
parameters governing the SNMP agent. You should therefore assign a user name and password to
the Administrator as soon as possible, and store it in a safe place. (If for some reason your
password is lost, or you cannot gain access to the System Configuration Program, contact
Enterasys Networks for assistance.) The parameters shown on this screen are indicated in the
following figure and table.
