– 323 –
PARAMETERS
These parameters are displayed:
◆ User Name – The name of the user.
(Maximum length: 32 characters; maximum number of users: 16)
◆ Access Level – Specifies the user level. (Options: 0 - Normal,
15 - Privileged)
Normal privilege level provides access to a limited number of the
commands which display the current status of the switch, as well as
several database clear and reset functions. Privileged level provides full
access to all commands.
◆ Password Type – Specifies the following options:
â–
No Password – No password is required for this user to log in.
â–
Plain Password – Plain text unencrypted password.
â–
Encrypted Password – Encrypted password.
The encrypted password is required for compatibility with legacy
password settings (i.e., plain text or encrypted) when reading the
configuration file during system bootup or when downloading the
configuration file from a TFTP or FTP server. There is no need for
you to manually configure encrypted passwords.
◆ Password – Specifies the user password.
(Range: 0-32 characters, case sensitive)
◆ Confirm Password – Re-type the string entered in the previous field
to ensure no errors were made. The switch will not change the
password if these two fields do not match.
