Connecting Network Devices and
Checking Connectivity
Overview
The procedures in this guide are for qualified service personnel.
Table 1 lists the tasks you must perform to connect your Brocade device, and shows where to get troubleshooting information for any
problems that can arise.
Assigning permanent passwords
By default, the CLI is not protected by passwords. To secure CLI access, Brocade strongly recommends assigning passwords.
NOTE
You cannot assign a password using the Web Management Interface. You can assign passwords using Brocade Network Advisor
if an enable password for a Super User has been configured on the device.
The CLI contains the following access levels:
•
User EXEC – The level you enter when you first start a CLI session. At this level, you can view some system information but you
cannot configure system or port parameters.
•
Privileged EXEC – This level is also called the Enable level and can be secured by a password. You can perform tasks such as
manage files on the flash module, save the system configuration to flash, and clear caches at this level.
•
CONFIG – The configuration level. This level lets you configure the system IP address and configure switching and routing
features. To access the CONFIG mode, you must already be logged into the Privileged level of the EXEC mode.
You can set the following levels of Enable passwords:
•
Super User – Allows complete read-and-write access to the system. This is generally for system administrators and is the only
password level that allows you to configure passwords.
