Software User Guide

We strongly recommend that you change both the Manager and the operator password. Note that
changing only an Operator password
does not
prevent access to the Manager level by intruders who
have the Manager password.
3.3.1
Operator Privileges
At the Operator level you can examine the current configuration and move between interfaces without
being able to change the configuration. A ">" character delimits the Operator-level prompt.
For example:
LE2425A>
_ (Example of the Operator prompt.)
3.3.2 Manager
Privileges
Manager privileges give you three additional levels of access: Manager, Global Configuration, and
Context Configuration. A “#” character delimits any Manager prompt. For example:
LE2425A#
_ (Example of the Manager prompt.)
Manager level
: Provides all Operator level privileges plus the ability to perform system-level actions.
The prompt for the Manager level contains only the system name and the “#” delimiter, as shown
above. To select this level, enter the
enable <manager>
command at the Operator level prompt and
enter the Manager password, when prompted. For example:
LE2425A>
enable <Manager> (Enter enable at the Operator prompt.)
LE2425A#
_ (The Manager prompt.)
Global Configuration level:
Provides all Operator and Manager level privileges, and enables you to
make configuration changes to any of the switch’s software features. The prompt for the Global
Configuration level includes the system IP, System Date, time etc.
Context Configuration level:
Provides all Operator and Manager privileges, and enables you to
make configuration changes in a specific context, such as one or more ports or a VLAN. The prompt
for the Context Configuration level includes the system name and the selected context.
For example:
LE2425A#
configure vlan type=port
OR
LE2425A#
vlan type=port
LE2425A(port-vlan)##_ (The Configuration Prompt)
3.4 User
Management
Using this module you can add, modify and delete user names and passwords. You can add 5 users
maximum. Two privilege levels are available;
Manager
and
Operator
. Level 1 is meant for
OPERATOR and Level 2 for MANAGER. For example, if you want to set up user name for basic
monitoring capabilities then use lower number (Level 1).
Note
: You can add more then one manager but total limit of users is five (including OPERATORS
and MANAGERS).
