Usage Information
If you congure the secure-cli command on the system, the Dell EMC Networking OS resets any previously-
congured root access password to the default root password without displaying any warning message. With the
secure-cli command enabled on the system, the CONFIGURATION mode does not display the root access
password
option.
When you congure the root access password, ensure that your password meets the following criteria:
• A minimum of eight characters in length
• A minimum of one lower case letter (a to z)
• A minimum of one upper case letter (A to Z)
• A minimum of one numeric character (0 to 9)
• A minimum of one special character including a space (" !"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\]^_`{|}~")
If your password does not meet the criteria, the system does not accept your password.
If you use encryption type 9, the system stores the clear text password in an inaccessible location on the system.
The show running-configuration command does not display the password. This conguration is not
portable between dierent systems.
Example
DellEMC)# show running-config | g root
root-access password 7
