A telnet session begins with a request for password, and will not continue until the proper user
password is supplied. This enhances the security of the system by not revealing its identity to
unauthorized people.
To log in with Admin level authorization:
Step 4 Initiate a telnet connection.
Step 5 A Password: prompt appears. Type in the user level password and press Enter.
The SCE 1000> prompt appears.
You now have user level authorization.
Step 6 From the SCE 1000> prompt, type enable 10 and press Enter.
The system prompts for a password by showing the prompt Password:
Step 7 Type in the password for the Admin level and press Enter.
Note that the password is an access-level authorization setting, not an individual user
password.
The system prompt changes to SCE 1000# to show you are now in Admin level.
EXAMPLE:
The following example illustrates how to change the authorization level from User to Admin, and
then revert back to User. No password is required for moving to a lower authorization level.
