password is your new password. Press <Enter>.
4. Type “username admin password 0 password,” for the Privileged Exec level,
where password is your new password. Press <Enter>.

Setting an IP Address
You must establish IP address information for the stack to obtain management
access through the network. This can be done in either of the following ways:
Manual
— You have to input the information, including IP address and subnet mask.
If your management station is not in the same IP subnet as the stack’s master unit,
you will also need to specify the default gateway router.
Dynamic
— The switch sends IP configuration requests to BOOTP or DHCP
address allocation servers on the network.
