E/OS Command Line Interface User Manual

Logging In and Logging Out

The login command is called automatically by the CLI whenever a

new Telnet session is activated or new administrator access rights are

configured.

Users are prompted to change the password after logging in with the

default password (password). However, at the next login, they will be

required to change the password if the default password is still being

used.

A user name and password can be set by the administrator through

the

config.security.authentication.user.add command or

through the

config.security.authentication.user.modify

command.

NOTE: Access rights chosen for the CLI are completely independent of the

other product interfaces, for example, SNMP or McDATA product interfaces.
