DEFINE BRIDGE PASSWORD password string
Lets you changes the password string. You are prompted twice for a
new password. The password may be up to 16 characters long and is
not displayed on the screen. The new password is saved. There is no
corresponding SET command because the DEFINE BRIDGE PASSWORD
takes effect immediately.
MOP provides a mechanism for setting and checking passwords. This
mechanism is only intended to provide protection against accidental
tampering with parameters and is not intended as a security feature. No
attempt is made to prevent compromise of the password by malicious
users. The DECbridge 90 should not be used in applications that
absolutely depend on the prevention of any unauthorized modifications to
the parameters.
LIST BRIDGE

SET PORT [hub number,] slot number,port number DISABLE

flash, indicating that the port was disconnected by the network manager.
There is no equivalent DEFINE command for disabling repeater ports.
Example: The expected response to a SET PORT DISABLE command is
shown.
