• Web User Interface (UI)
After initial setup is complete, enable Web UI access through the CLI.
Using the Web UI, you can manage the SMC through a Web browser.
The Web UI provides a richly featured graphical user interface that
enables routine configuration and data collection.
Users and passwords
Access to system functions is controlled through the use of unique usernames
and passwords. Once you are connected to the system through the local
console, Telnet, SSH, or Web browser, you are prompted to enter a password.
To enable better administration and user accountability, four levels of user
access are implemented on the SMC. The default usernames and password for
each access level are listed in Table 14. Usernames and passwords are case
sensitive.
Note: Nortel recommends that you change all the default passwords
after initial configuration and as regularly as required under your
network security policies.
