SWITCH MANAGEMENT

Setting Passwords

Note: If this is your first time to log into the CLI program, you should define new passwords for both default user names using the “username” command, record them and put them in a safe place.

Passwords can consist of up to 8 alphanumeric characters and are case sensitive. To prevent unauthorized access to the switch, set the passwords as follows:

1.Open the console interface with the default user name and password “admin” to access the Privileged Exec level.

2.Type “configure” and press <Enter>.

3.Type “username guest password 0 password,” for the Normal Exec level, where password is your new password. Press <Enter>.

4.Type “username admin password 0 password,” for the Privileged Exec level, where password is your new password. Press <Enter>.
