User Configuration
A user must be configured through the SMU to make full use of terminal mode. To create a
user, navigate to the SMU user configuration screen. Enter any username and password
combinations desired. Make sure to check the box that enables a particular user for use on the
serial channel. If this is not done, the username is not useable on the serial channel for terminal
mode. Configure the user with the desired maximum privilege level. See User Configuration
Sub-task on page 60 for details about the user configuration screens.
Spaces, left bracket characters or right bracket characters are not allowed in usernames or
passwords used with terminal mode.
