Chapter Bringing Up Cisco IOS XR Software on the Router
Verifying the System After Initial Boot
Note The default username/password for a spare RSP without the Cisco IOS XR image or a chassis without
the Cisco IOS XR image is set to “root/root“.
Examples
The following example shows the root-system username and password configuration for a new router,
and it shows the initial log in:
--- Administrative User Dialog ---
Enter root-system username: username1
Enter secret:
Enter secret again:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Jan 10 12:50:53.105 : exec[65652]: %MGBL-CONFIG-6-DB_COMMIT :
'Administration configuration committed by system'. Use 'show configuration
commit changes 2000000009' to view the changes.
Use the 'admin' mode 'configure' command to modify this configuration.
User Access Verification
Username: username1
Password:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router#
The secret line in the configuration command script shows that the password is encrypted. When you
enter the password during configuration and login, the password is hidden.
Verifying the System After Initial Boot
To verify the status of the router, perform the following procedure:
SUMMARY STEPS
1. show version
2. admin
3. show platform [node-id]
4. exit
5. show redundancy
Step 4
Retype the password for the root-system login and
press Enter.
Allows the router to verify that you have entered the same
password both times.
• If the passwords do not match, the router prompts you
to repeat the process.
Step 5
Log in to the router. Establishes your access rights for the router management
session.
• Enter the root-system username and password that were
created earlier in this procedure.
• After you log in, the router displays the CLI prompt,
which is described in the
CLI Prompt.
