Variable Value
hsecure Activates or disables High Secure mode. The
hsecure command provides the following password
behavior:
• 10 character enforcement
• The password must contain a minimum of 2
uppercase characters, 2 lowercase characters, 2
numbers, and 2 special characters.
• Aging time
• Failed login attempt limitation
The default value is disabled. If you enable High
Secure mode, you must restart the switch to enforce
secure passwords. If you operate the switch in High
Secure mode, the switch prompts a password
change if you enter invalid-length passwords.
logging The logging command is used to activate or disable
system logging. The default value is enabled. The
system names log files according to the following:
• File names appear in 8.3 (log.xxxxxxxx.sss)
format.
• The first 6 characters of the file name contain the
last three bytes of the chassis base MAC address.
• The next two characters in the file name specify
the slot number of the CPU that generated the
logs.
• The last three characters in the file name are the
sequence number of the log file.
The system generates multiple sequence numbers
for the same chassis and same slot if the system
reaches the maximum log file size.
reboot Activates or disables automatic reboot on a fatal
error. The default value is activated.
Important:
Do not change this parameter unless directed
by Avaya.
rlogind Activates or disables the rlogin and rsh server. The
default value is disabled.
spanning-tree-mode <mstp|rstp> Specifies the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol or
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol mode. If you do not
specify a protocol, the switch uses the default mode.
The default mode is mstp. If you change the
