Note: Enterasys recommends that you change the enable password from the default (nopassword)
to prevent unauthorized users from entering configuration commands.
Note: The enable password is case-sensitive.
Note: Be sure to use a password that you will remember. If you lose the enable password, the only
way to restore it causes the system to return to its default settings and wipes out any saved
configuration.
