Using Password Security

Using Password Security

There are two levels of console access: Manager and Operator. For security, you can set a password on each of these levels. The manager and operator passwords control access to both the web browser interface and the switch console.

Level

Actions Permitted

 

 

Manager:

Access to all console interface areas.

 

This is the default level. That is, if a Manager password has not been set prior

 

to starting the current console session, then anyone having access to the

 

console can access any area of the console interface.

Operator:

Access to the Status and Counters menu, the Event Log, and the Diagnostics

 

menu, but no configuration capabilities.

 

On the Operator level, the Configuration menus, Download OS, and Reboot

 

Switch options in the Main Menu, and the Command Prompt option in the

 

Diagnostics menu are not available.

 

 

To use password security:

1.Set a Manager password (and an Operator password, if applicable for your system) as described on page 4-10.

2.Exit from the current console session. A Manager password will now be needed for full access to the console.

If you do steps 1 and 2, above, then the next time a console session is started, the console interface will prompt for a password. Assuming that both a Manager password and an Operator password have been set, the level of access to the console interface will be determined by which password is entered in response to the prompt.

If you set a Manager password, you may also want to configure the Connection Inactivity Time parameter in the Console/Serial Link configuration screen that is under the Switch Management Access Configuration menu (see page 6-20). This causes the console session to end after the specified period of inactivity, thus giving you added security against unauthorized console access.
