Foundry AR-Series AR1202 and AR1204 Installation Guide

example:

Foundry-AR1204/configure# user John level 2

The system prompts you to enter a new password.

3.Enter the new password.

The system prompts you to re-enter the new password.

4.Re-enter the new password.

The system confirms that the password is set and confirms the name of the added user.

You can use the display user_accounts command to view user information.

Removing Users

The no user name command allows the system administrator to remove configured user names from the Foundry system.

To remove a user name:

1.Type no user name, followed by the user’s name.

example:

Foundry-AR1204/configure# no user John

2.Press Return.

The user name is removed from the system.

Default Configuration

For more information about command usage, refer to the appropriate Foundry Command Reference Guide (either the domestic or international version).

There are three ways to restore factory default configuration settings. Remember to reboot the router after performing any of the following procedures.

•Clear the contents of the system.cfg file clear cfg_file system.cfg

•Delete the system.cfg file rm system.cfg

•Rename and remove the system.cfg file

copy system.cfg system.bk

rm system.cfg

After performing any of the above options, the system.cfg file no longer exists. Subsequently, a “file not found” error message is displayed upon rebooting the system. This message will not impact operation, and it should be ignored.

NOTE: If you change any of the factory default settings, issue the save local command to retain the changed configuration before rebooting.

The following tables show the factory default configuration for the Foundry AR1202 and AR1204 router.
