Field	Description
TELNET Stack	Enables password protection for accessing the console interface (CI) of any
Password Type	participating switch in a stack configuration, through a TELNET session.
	If you set this field to Required, you can use the Logout option to restrict access
	to the CI of any stack unit. Thereafter, you will need to specify the correct
	password at the console-terminal prompt when accessing the stack. See
	Console Read-Only Stack Password and Console Read-Write Stack Password
	for more information.
	Default Value	None
	Range	None, Local Password, RADIUS Authentication
Console Read-Only	When the Console Switch Password field is set to Local Password (for TELNET,
Switch Password	for Console, or for Both), this field allows read-only password access to the CI of
	a standalone switch. Users can access the CI using the correct password (see
	default), but cannot change parameters or use the Reset option or Reset to
	Default option.
	Default Value	user
	Range	An ASCII string of up to 15 printable characters
Console Read-Write	When the Console Switch Password field is set to Local Password (for TELNET,
Switch Password	for Console, or for Both), this field allows read-write password access to the CI of
	a standalone switch. Users can log in to the CI using the correct password (see
	default), and can change any parameter, except the stack passwords.
	You can change the default passwords for read-only access and read-write
	access to a private password.
	Default Value:	secure
	Range:	Any ASCII string of up to 15 printable characters
	Caution: If you change the system-supplied default passwords, be sure to
	write the new passwords down and keep them in a safe place. If you forget the
	new passwords, you cannot access the console interface. In that case, contact
	Nortel Networks for help.

	sicheren Ort auf. Falls Sie die neuen Paß wörter vergessen, können Sie nicht
	mehr auf die Konsolenschnittstelle zugreifen. Wenden Sie sich in diesem Fall an
	Nortel Networks, um Unterstützung zu erhalten.
