Configuring Username and Password Security
Overview
Beginning with software release K.14.01, usernames and passwords for Man-
ager and Operator access can also be configured using the Management
Interface Wizard. For more information, refer to “Quick Start: Using the
Management Interface Wizard” on page 1-10.
To configure password security:
1.
Set a Manager password pair (and an Operator password pair, if applicable
for your system).
2.
Exit from the current console session. A Manager password pair will now
be needed for full access to the console.
If you do steps 1 and 2, above, then the next time a console session is started
for either the menu interface or the CLI, a prompt appears for a password.
Assuming you have protected both the Manager and Operator levels, the level
of access to the console interface will be determined by which password is
entered in response to the prompt.
If you set a Manager password, you may also want to configure an inactivity
timer. This causes the console session to end after the specified period of
inactivity, thus giving you added security against unauthorized console access.
N o t e
If theconsole inactivity-timer expires, any outbound Telnet or SSH sessions
open on the switch are terminated.
You can use either of the following to set the inactivity timer:
Level Actions
Permitted
Manager:
Access to all console interface areas.
This is the default level.
That is, if a Manager password has
not
been set prior
to starting the current console session, then anyone having access to the
console can access any area of the console interface.
Operator:
Access to the Status and Counters menu, the Event Log, and the CLI*, but no
Configuration capabilities.
On the Operator level, the configuration menus, Download OS, and Reboot
Switch options in the Main Menu are not available.
*Allows use of the ping, link-test, show, menu, exit, and logout commands, plus the enable
command if you can provide the Manager password.
