Setting Security Passwords
Setting security passwords for your switch requires setting the appropriate
parameter values in two screens:
• Console Service Port Configuration screen (page 3-58
)
• Radius Network Security screen (page 3-77
)
This section provides a matrix you can use to determine the proper values to enter
according to your security requirements. To use the matrix, do the following:
1.
Determine your console security requirements (Tabl e 3 -2 3).
2.
Determine your TELNET sessions security requirements (Ta bl e 3- 24).
Caution:
If you change the system-supplied default passwords, be sure to
write the new passwords down and keep them in a safe place. If you forget the
new passwords, you cannot access the console interface. In that case, contact
Nortel Networks for help.
