3. Enter the enable super-user-password command to set the super-user password.
Brocade(config)# enable super-user-password mustang

You must set the super-user password before you can set other types of passwords.
4. Enter the following commands to set the port configuration and read-only passwords.
Brocade(config)# enable port-config-password mustang
Brocade(config)# enable read-only-password mustang
If you forget your super-user password, see the release notes.
Syntax: enable | super-user-password | read-only-password | port-config-password text
The text for the read-only--password and the port-config password should be different from the
text for the super-user password. Passwords can be up to 48 characters long.
Configuring IP addresses
Brocade routers implement separate data and control planes. This architecture affects how you
assign IP addresses. Table 28 outlines the interfaces to which you can assign IP addresses.
In this table, “In band” refers to an interface over which user packets are routed, while “Out of
band” refers to an interface over which control packets related to system management are
forwarded.
TABLE 28 Interfaces that can be given IP addresses
Interface Associated physical port Out of band or In band
Management interface Ethernet 10/100/1000 port on active or
redundant management module
Out of band
Any interface over which user packets
are routed
Any interface module port In band
Any virtual interface over which user
packets are routed
Any interface port In band
Loopback interface – In band
