SET HOSTNAME AND ADMIN USER PASSWORD
The CLI has several different modes. When entering the CLI through the admin entry, the mode is in
exec mode. This allows the user to modify configuration files, reload defaults, system information etc.
When the unit is in configuration mode, the user can change detailed configurations.
To set the OSD2512 host name, the unit needs to be first set to configuration mode then enter the
hostname command, then a chosen hostname. After this is entered, the units requires an ‘exit’ from
configuration mode.
The host name has now changed to “OSD2512-Sec1” and can be seen on the prompt.
A new password for the ‘admin’ user is recommended to be set.
In the example above the password was changed to “OSD”. Other users can be added using the above
method.
