Figure 187 Resetting the Password
After you reset the administrator user account and password, you can login to the switch and reconfigure the
enable mode password. To do this, enter configuration mode and type the enable secret command. You are
prompted to enter a new password and retype it to confirm. Save the configuration by entering write
memory.
Figure 188 details an example reconfigure the enable mode password. Again, the command you enter displays
in bold type.
User: admin
Password: ******
(host) >enable
Password: ******
(host) #configure terminal
Enter Configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z
(host) (config) #enable secret
Password: ******
Re-Type password: ******
(host) (config) #write memory
Figure 188 Reconfigure the enable mode password
Bypassing the Enable Password Prompt
The bypass enable feature lets you bypass the enable password prompt and go directly to the privileged
commands (config mode) after logging on to the switch. This is useful if you want to avoid changing the enable
password due to company policy.
Use the enable bypass CLI command to bypass the enable prompt an go directly to the privileged commands
(config mode). Use the no enable bypass CLI command to restore the enable password prompt.
Setting an Administrator Session Timeout
You can configure the number of seconds after which an administrator’s WebUI or CLI session times out.
In the WebUI
To define a timeout interval for a WebUI session, use the command:
(host)(config) #web-server profile
(host)(Web Server Configuration) #session-timeout <session-timeout>
In the above command, <session-timeout> can be any number of seconds from 30 to 3600, inclusive.
