See "About Passwords" on page 97. To exit the password command without completing the prompts, click CTRL+C. 1. Create a CLI connection to the switch. 2. Log in using the account for which you want to change the password. At each account level, you can change passwords for that account and all accounts that have lesser privileges. See "About Passwords" on page 97. 3. Enter the passwd command and enter the requested information at the prompts. You must enter the current password for the first account. Passwords do not have to contain upper/lower/non-alphanumeric characters. If you are using Secure Fabric OS, new passwords are saved and distributed to all the switches in the fabric.
