Default Users and
Passwords
If you intend to manage the switch using the web interface or the command line
interface, or to change the default passwords, you need to log in with a valid user
name and password. The switch has three default user names, and each user
name has a different password and level of access. These default users are listed in
Table 11.
CAUTION: To protect your switch from unauthorized access, you must change all
three default passwords as soon as possible, even if you do not intend to actively
manage your switch.
Use the admin default user name (no password) to login and carry out initial
switch setup.
To set a password for the admin user in the CLI, enter the following from system
view:
[4500G]local-user admin <cr>
[4500G-luser-admin]password simple xxxxxxxx
(where xxxxxxxx is your chosen password).
Save the configuration in the User View.
For information on the lost password procedure please refer to the Configuration
Guide that is supplied with your switch.
