Logging In to the Appliance Chapter 9 Logging In to the Sensor Note The service role is a special role that allows you to bypass the CLI if needed. Only a user with administrator privileges can edit the service account. Note For IPS 5.0 and later, you can no longer remove the cisco account. You can disable it using the no password cisco command, but you cannot remove it. To use the no password cisco command, there must be another administrator account on the sensor. Removing the cisco account through the service account is not supported. If you remove the cisco account through the service account, the sensor most likely will not boot up, so to recover the sensor you must reinstall the sensor system image. For More Information For the procedure for creating the service account, refer to Creating the Service Account, page A-5. Logging In to the Appliance Note You must initialize the appliance (run the setup command) from the console. After networking is configured, SSH and Telnet are available. You can log in to the appliance from a console port. To log in to the appliance, follow these steps: Step 1 Connect a console port to the sensor to log in to the appliance.
