Password assignment
DANGER
The procedures in this manual are for qualified service personnel.
By default, the device’s CLI is not protected by passwords. To secure CLI access, Brocade strongly
recommends assigning passwords.
The CLI contains the following access levels:
• Privileged EXEC - This level is also called the Enable level and can be secured by a password. You
can perform tasks such as manage files on the management module’s flash memory or a PCMCIA
flash card in the management module’s slots 1 or 2, save the system configuration to flash memory,
and clear caches at this level.
• CONFIG - The configuration level. This level lets you configure the system’s IP address and
configure routing features. To access the CONFIG mode, you must already be logged into the
Privileged level of the EXEC mode.
NOTE
You can assign passwords using the Brocade Network Advisor if an Enable password for a Super
User is already configured on the device.
You can set the following levels of Enable passwords:
• Super User - Allows complete read-and-write access to the system. This is generally for system
administrators and is the only password level that allows you to configure passwords.
NOTE
You must set a super user password before you can set other types of passwords.
• Port Configuration - Allows read-and-write access for specific ports but not for global (system-wide)
parameters.
• Read Only - Allows access to the Privileged EXEC mode and CONFIG mode but only with read
access.
Follow the steps given below to set passwords.
