The default password for each access level is blank. (Simply press Enter or Return without
entering a password.) If you want to add password protection to the CLI, use the
following procedure.
1. Ensure that you are in Enable mode by entering the enable command in the CLI.
2. Ensure that you are in Configure mode by entering the configure command in the
CLI.
3. Type the following command for each password you want to set:
4. Use the show command to examine the commands you just entered.
5. Use the save active command to activate the commands.
6. Use the system show active-config command to verify the active changes.
Here is an example of the commands in the previous steps:
system set password login|enable <string>|none
ssr(config)# system set password login demo
ssr(config)# system set password enable demo
ssr(config)# save active
ssr# exit
ssr# system show active-config
