7 Managing Switch User
Accounts
Switch user accounts may be set up locally on the switch for users to log into and manage the switch. The
accounts specify login information (combinations of usernames and passwords) and privilege or profile
information depending on the type of user.
The switch has several interfaces (console, Telnet, HTTP, FTP, Secure Shell, and SNMP) through which
users may access the switch. The switch may be set up to allow or deny access through any of these inter-
faces. See
Chapter 8, “Managing Switch Security,”
for information about setting up management inter-
faces.
In This Chapter
This chapter describes how to set up user accounts locally on the switch through the Command Line Inter-
face (CLI). CLI commands are used in the configuration examples; for more details about the syntax of
commands, see the
OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide
.
This chapter provides an overview of user accounts. In addition, configuration procedures described in this
chapter include:
•
“Creating a User” on page 7-10
.
•
“Configuring Password Policy Settings” on page 7-12
.
•
“Configuring Privileges for a User” on page 7-17
.
•
“Setting Up SNMP Access for a User Account” on page 7-18
.
•
“Setting Up End-User Profiles” on page 7-20
.
For information about enabling management interfaces on the switch, see
Chapter 8, “Managing Switch
Security.”
For information about connecting a management station to the switch, see
Chapter 1, “Managing System
Files,”
and the appropriate
Getting Started Guide
.
User information may also be configured on external servers in addition to, or instead of, user accounts
configured locally on the switch (except end-user profiles, which may only be configured on the switch).
For information about setting up external servers that are configured with user information, see the
“Managing Authentication Servers” chapter in the
OmniSwitch 6800/6850/9000 Network Configuration
