SET/DEFINE/CHANGE Commands
4-110
PRIVILEGED/NOPRIVILEGED
(secure)
Syntax
Description
This secure command enables the port you are using to perform privileged
operations. When you enter the command, the access server prompts you for the
privileged password. The first time you use your access server, enter the default
password SYSTEM. Then use the SET server PRIVILEGED PASSWORD
command to immediately set your own password so that unauthorized users
cannot enter privileged commands.
When you complete your privileged operations, use the SET NOPRIVILEGED
command or log out the port to set the port back to nonprivileged status to
prevent unauthorized use.
If you set your port to privileged status when the port characteristic
MULTISESSIONS is enabled, the privileged status applies to all your terminal
sessions.
Example: DEFINE/SET/CHANGE PRIVILEGED/NOPRIVILEGED
Local> SET PRIVILEGED
Password> SYSTEM (not displayed)
Local> SET server PRIVILEGED PASSWORD
Password> PLANET (not displayed)
Verification> PLANET (not displayed)
Local> SET NOPRIVILEGED
In this example, the default password SYSTEM is entered at the password
prompt. After setting the port to privileged status, the privileged password is
changed to PLANET and the port is returned to nonprivileged status. The next
time someone attempts to enter privileged status on this port, they must enter the
password PLANET. For more information on specifying passwords, refer to
Chapter 1.
Port privilege overrides the Limited View characteristic.
