If there is a domain ID conflict in the fabric, the switch with the highest principal priority, or the principal switch, will reassign any domain ID conflicts and establish the fabric. Managing user accounts Only the Admin account can manage user accounts with the User Account Administration dialog boxes. However, any user can modify their own password. To open a User Account Administration dialog box, open the Switch menu and select User Accounts. A user account consists of the following data: • Account name or login • Password • Authority level • Expiration date Switches come from the factory with the following user accounts: • admin-Admin authority, never expires, password is password • images-No Admin authority, never expires, password is images, The Admin account is the only user that can manage all user accounts with the User Account Administration dialog boxes. The Admin account can create, remove, or modify user accounts, and change account passwords. The Admin account can also view and modify the switch and its configuration with QuickTools. The Admin account can not be removed. Users with Admin authority can use QuickTools to view and modify the switch and its configuration. Users without Admin authority are limited to viewing only switch status and configuration. The Images account is used to exchange files with the switch using FTP. The Images account can not be removed. NOTE: If the same user account exists on a switch and its RADIUS server, that user can login with either password, but the authority and account expiration will always come from the switch database. 54 Managing switches
