Creating a Shell Password
Access to the shell commands may be protected with a password.
Note
By default, access to the shell commands is not password protected.
To create a password:
1. At the shell prompt, type
set_pass
<
your
password
>.
2. Restart the Tmedia unit. This will reset the Tmedia unit and add the enable and disable shell
password commands to the console commands list.
Once the shell password has been set, it cannot be changed unless you are in the
Enabled
mode. The
enabled mode provides you with access to operation sensitive commands.
To enter the enabled mode:
1. At the shell prompt, type
enable
<
your
password
>.
To clear the password mode:
1. At the shell prompt, type
set_pass
(without entering a password).
To exit the enabled mode:
1. At the shell prompt, type
disable
.
