Changing the Passwords
Changing the Enable Password
The enable password lets you enter privileged EXEC mode. By default, the enable password is blank. To
change the enable password, enter the following command:
hostname(config)#
enable
password
password
The
password
is a
case-sensitive password of up to 16 alphanumeric and special characters. You can use
any character in the password except a question mark or a space.
This command changes the password for the highest privilege level. If you configure local command
authorization, you can set enable passwords for each privilege level from 0 to 15.
The password is saved in the configuration in encrypted form, so you cannot view the original password
after you enter it. Enter the
enable password
command without a password to set the password to the
default, which is blank.
Changing the Maintenance Software Passwords
The maintenance software is valuable for troubleshooting. For example, you can install new software to
an application partition, reset passwords, or show crash dump information from the maintenance
software. You can only access the maintenance software by sessioning in to the FWSM.
The maintenance software has two user levels with different access privileges:
•
root—Lets you configure the network partition parameters, upgrade the software images on the
application partitions, change the guest account password, and enable or disable the guest account.
The default password is “cisco.”
•
guest—Lets you configure the network partition parameters and show crash dump information.
The default password is “cisco.”
To change the maintenance partition passwords for both users, perform the following steps:
Step 1
To reboot the FWSM into the maintenance partition, enter the following command at the switch prompt:
Router#
hw-module
module
mod_num
reset cf
:
1
Step 2
To session in to the FWSM, enter the following command:
Router#
session slot
mod_num
processor 1
Step 3
Log in as root by entering the following command:
Login:
root
Step 4
Enter the password at the prompt:
Password:
The default password is “cisco”.
Step 5
Change the root password by entering the following command:
root@localhost#
passwd
Step 6
Enter the new password at the prompt:
Changing password for user root
New password:
