Setting Passwords
Note: If this is your first time to log into the CLI program, you
should define new passwords for both default user names
using the “username” command, record them and put them
in a safe place.
Passwords can consist of up to eight alphanumeric characters and
are case sensitive. To prevent unauthorized access to the switch,
set the passwords as follows:
1. Open the console interface with the default user name and
password “admin” to access the Privileged Exec level.
2. Type “configure” and press <Enter>.
3. Type “username guest password 0 password,” for the Normal
Exec level, where password is your new password. Press
<Enter>.
4. Type “username admin password 0 password,” for the
Privileged Exec level, where password is your new password.
Press <Enter>.
Username: admin
Password:
CLI session with the SMC8624T is opened.
To end the CLI session, enter [Exit].
Console#configure
