13 Changing the SSH Access Password 
13.1 Maintenance Suggestions 
 
 
 
SSH is used only for advanced maintenance. 
 
Change the preset password before using the SSH protocol. 
 
Except for password changes, do not perform any other operations. Otherwise, the SNMP 
card cannot work properly. 
 
Damages to the SNMP card caused by operations except password change are not covered 
by warranty. 
 
Remember the new password. 
 
To prevent brute force cracking, an account is automatically logged out if no operation is 
performed within 5 minutes after command line login. 
 
SSH v2 is adopted for secure transmission. 
 
When Windows accesses the SNMP card over SSH, you need to use client software such as PuTTY. 
 
Security information involved in Secure Shell (SSH) login is the command line user 
name and password. 
 
System accounts are as follows: 
−  Administrator root: Direct login is not supported. Log in as enspire and run su to 
switch to the root account. The user name cannot be modified. The preset password 
is Changeme, which can be modified. 
−  Common user enspire: The user name cannot be modified. The preset password is 
Changeme, which can be modified. 
−  Common user prorunacc: The user account is used to run service programs. Login 
with a password is not supported. Log in as root and run su to switch to the 
prorunacc account. 
 
Change the password immediately upon first SSH login. 
 
Use the password with certain complexity. 
Avoid using the preset password or low-complexity passwords that are prone to attacks 
and cracking by unauthorized users, which will affect the device security. To ensure
