For security reasons, the first time you log in to the Fabric OS you are requested to change the admin system passwords. There are four user levels: root, factory, admin, and user.

Log in to the switch as the admin user. 2. Enter the passwd command. You are then prompted for information to change the password. 3. At the Enter new password prompt, enter the new password. 4. At the Re-type new password prompt, enter the new password exactly as entered at the previous prompt. 5. Press the enter key to commit the configuration to the firmware. A message displays the successful storage of the new password. Example: switch:admin> passwd Changing password for admin Enter new password: Re-type new password: Password changed.
