Linuxadmin User Configuration
OS10 supports two factory default users, the admin and linuxadmin. The admin user is used to sign into the CLI and the
linuxadmin user is used to access the linux shell.
Support has now been added to manage the default linuxadmin user via the CLI. You can perform the following operations
via the CLI:
NOTE:
This feature is used to manage the default linux user, linuxadmin only. This feature cannot be used to manage linux
users created via the root user.
The password of the linuxadmin user that is configured via the OS10 CLI takes higher precedence over the password
modified via the linux shell across reboots.
The password of the linuxadmin user configured via the linux shell does not show up in the show running-
configuration output.
Configure a password for the linuxadmin user:
To configure a password for the linuxadmin user, enter CONFIGURATION mode and execute the command system-user
linuxadmin password {clear-text-password | hashed-password}.
OS10(config)# system-user linuxadmin password Dell@Force10!@
OS10(config)# exit
OS10# write memory

OS10# exit
OS10(config)# system-user linuxadmin
