PASS
Explanation:
Before using any password protected commands, you must first enter the correct password. For example,
you must enter the correct password before switching the ONS 15216 EDFA1 operating mode to
temperature-compensated constant gain mode (SETGT command, see Figure 5-1).
The system returns a “wrong password” for any incorrect passwords entered. When you enter the correct
password, all password protected commands become accessible.
To change the password, use the PASS command followed by the old password and then the new
password. In Example 5-14, after you enter the correct password (ENTER) the password is changed with
the new PASS ENTER OPEN command.
Note To retain the new password, you need to save the configuration.
