NOTE
: The first user automatically gets Administrator level privileges. It is recommended to
create at least one Admin-level user account for the Switch.
Password Protection
The Switch does not have a default user name and password. One of the first tasks when settings up the Switch is to create user
accounts. Once logged in using a predefined administrator-level user name, users will have privileged access to the Switch's
management software.
After your initial login, define new passwords for both default user names to prevent unauthorized access to the Switch, and
record the passwords for future reference.
To create an administrator-level account for the Switch, follow these steps:
At the CLI login prompt, enter
create account admin
followed by the
<user name>
and press the
Enter
key.
The switch will then prompt the user for a password. Type the
<password>
used for the administrator account being
created and press the
Enter
key.
Again, the user will be prompted to enter the same password again to verify it. Type the same password and press
the
Enter
key.
Successful creation of the new administrator account will be verified by a Success message.
