Changing the Manager and Operator Passwords
There are two levels of management access on the AT-9400 Switch:
manager and operator. When you log in as manager, you can view and
configure all of a switch’s operating parameters. When you log in as an
operator, you can only view the operating parameters; you cannot change
any values.
You log in as a manager or an operator when you enter the appropriate
username and password when you start a management session. The
default password for manager access is “friend.” The default password for
operator access is “operator.” Passwords are case sensitive.
This section contains these two procedures:
“Changing the Manager or Operator Password” on page 35
“Resetting the Manager Password” on page 37
The first procedure allows you to change the manager or operator
password. The second procedure allows you to bypass the manager
password in the event you lose or forget it.
