Defining Users
A user, in this context, is a system administrator or superuser, who manages the
switch.
The default username is cisco and the default password is cisco. The first time
that you log in with the default username and password, you are required to enter
a new password. If the password that you choose is not complex enough, you will
be prompted to create another password.
