Modifying an Existing Local Netlogin Account
After you create a local netlogin user name and password, you can update the following attributes of
that account:
● Password of the local netlogin account
● Destination VLAN attributes including: adding clients tagged or untagged, the name of the VLAN,
and the VLAN ID
If you try modifying a local netlogin account that is not present on the switch, or you incorrectly enter
the name of the account, output similar to the following appears:
* SummitX450.14 # configure netlogin local-user purplenet
^
%% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
To confirm the names of the local netlogin accounts on your switch, use the following command:
show netlogin local-users
Updating the Local Netlogin Password. To update the password of an existing local netlogin account, use
the following command:
configure netlogin local-user <user_name>
Where user_name specifies the name of the existing local netlogin account. After you enter the local
netlogin user name, press [Enter]. The switch prompts you to enter a password. At the prompt enter the
new password and press [Enter]. The switch then prompts you to reenter the password.
Passwords are case-sensitive. Passwords must have a minimum of 0 characters and a maximum of 32
characters. If you attempt to create a password with more than 32 characters, the switch displays the
following message after you re-enter the password:
Password cannot exceed 32 characters
The following example modifies the password for the existing local netlogin account megtest. The
following is a sample display from this command:
configure netlogin local-user megtest
password: <Enter the new password. The switch does not display the password.>
Reenter password: <Re-enter the new password. The switch does not display the
password.>
After you complete these steps, the password has been updated.
Updating VLAN Attributes. You can add a destination VLAN, change the destination VLAN, or remove
the destination VLAN from an existing local netlogin account. To make any of these VLAN updates, use
the following command:
configure netlogin local-user <user-name> {vlan-vsa [[{tagged | untagged}
[<vlan_name>] | <vlan_tag>]] | none]}
Where the following is true:
● user_name—Specifies the name of the existing local netlogin account
● tagged—Specifies that the client be added as tagged
● untagged—Specifies that the client be added as untagged
