hsecure mode

The Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 supports a flag called high secure (hsecure). hsecure introduces the following behaviors for the password: 10-character enforcement, aging time, limitation of failed logon attempts, and a protection mechanism to filter certain IP addresses.

After you enable the hsecure flag, the software enforces the 10-character rule for all passwords. After you upgrade from a previous release, if the password does not contain at least 10 characters, you must change your password to the mandatory character length. This password must contain a minimum of two uppercase characters, two lowercase characters, two numbers, and two special characters.

Default passwords and community strings

If the switch boots in hsecure mode as a default factory setting, and you have not configured a password, the default passwords are changed to respect this rule. The following table describes the default passwords.
