Logging In
When the CLI connection is first established, a login prompt is displayed:
Login>
Enter a user name. The first time you log in on a new unit, type the name admin
and press Enter. The password prompt is displayed:
Password>
Enter the password associated with the user name. The default password for
admin is null, so press Enter without typing anything. The following prompt is
displayed:
PDYN>
Type privilege and press Enter. The password prompt is displayed again to
show that you must enter the administrator privilege password. The first time you
log in, just press Enter.
The following prompt is displayed:
PDYN#
For security purposes, immediately establish new passwords for the user name
admin.
Command Line Prompts
The command line prompt shows the user access level, whether there are any
unsaved configuration changes, and at what level you are in the command tree.
For the User access level, the following prompt is displayed:
PDYN>
For the Administrator access level, the following prompt is displayed:
PDYN#
If changes have been made to the configuration in this or a previous session that
have not been changed, an exclamation point is added to the prompt. For
example:
PDYN#!
The next section, Modes of Operation, shows how your position in the command
tree further affects the prompt.
