4 – Managing Switches Managing User Accounts

Q

modify the switch and its configuration both with SANbox Manager and the Telnet command line interface. Without Admin authority, you are limited to viewing switch status and configuration. The Images account is for exchanging files with the switch using FTP.

The factory switch configuration does not enforce user accounts and passwords. This means that no account name and password are required to add a fabric and modify switch configurations using SANbox Manager. To enforce user accounts and authority, set the SecurityEnabled parameter to True using the Set Setup System command in the Telnet command line interface. Refer to ”Set Setup Command” on page A-46.

To create, remove, and modify user accounts, open the Switch menu in the faceplate display, and select User Accounts.... If fabric security is enabled, your account must have Admin authority to manage user accounts.
