Configuring the Management Route
Define a path from the S6000 to the network from which you are accessing the
S6000 remotely. Management routes are separate from IP routes and are used to
manage the S6000 through the management port.
To configure a management route, follow this step.
Configuring the Username and Password
To access the system remotely, configure a system username and password.
To configure a username and password, follow this step.
Configuring the Enable Password
Access EXEC Privilege mode using the enable command. EXEC Privilege
mode is unrestricted by default. As a basic security measure, configure a
password. There are two types of enable passwords:
• enable password — stores the password in the running/startup configuration
using a data encryption standard (DES)-encryption method.
• enable secret — stores the password in the running/startup configuration
using a stronger, MD5-encryption method.
Dell Networking recommends using the enable secret password.
