NETGEAR 8800 Chassis Switch CLI Manual Default N/A. Usage Guidelines You must create a user or administrative account before you can configure that account with a password. Use the create account account command to create a user account. When you use this command, the following password that you specify in plain text is entered and displayed by the switch in an encrypted format. Administrators should enter the password in plain text. The encrypted password is then used by the switch once it encrypts the plain text password. The encrypted command should be used by the switch only to show, store, and load a system-generated encrypted password in configuration; this applies with the following commands: save configuration, show configuration, and use configuration. Note: Once you issue this command, you cannot have a null password. However, if you want to have a null password (that is, no password on the specified account), use the create account command. Passwords can have a minimum of 0 character and can have a maximum of 32 characters. Both passwords and user names are case-sensitive. Note: If the account is configured to require a specific password format, the minimum is 8 characters. See configure account password-policy char-validation for more information. You must have administrator privileges to change passwords for accounts other than your own. Example The following command encrypts the password red for the account marketing: configure account marketing encrypted red configure account password-policy char-validation configure account [all | ] password-policy char-validation [none | all-char-groups] Description Requires that the user include an upper-case letter, a lower-case letter, a digit, and a symbol in the password. 18 | Chapter 2.
