Configuring Front-Panel Security
Using the front-panel-security command from the global configuration context
in the CLI you can:
Disable or re-enable the password-clearing function of the Clear
button. Disabling the Clear button means that pressing it does not
remove local password protection from the switch. (This action
affects the Clear button when used alone, but does not affect the
operation of the Reset+Clear combination described under “Restor-
ing the Factory Default Configuration” on page 2-25.)
Configure the Clear button to reboot the switch after clearing any
local usernames and passwords. This provides an immediate, visual
means (plus an Event Log message) for verifying that any usernames
and passwords in the switch have been cleared.
Modify the operation of the Reset+Clear combination (page 2-25) so
that the switch still reboots, but does not restore the switch’s factory
default configuration settings. (Use of the Reset button alone, to
simply reboot the switch, is not affected.)
Disable or re-enable Password Recovery.
Syntax: show front-panel-security
Displays the current front-panel-security settings:
Clear Password: Shows the status of the Clear button on the
front panel of the switch. Enabled means that pressing the
Clear button erases the local usernames and passwords
configured on the switch (and thus removes local password
protection from the switch). Disabled means that pressing the
Clear button does not remove the local usernames and
passwords configured on the switch. (Default: Enabled.)
