Creating a text file of user records
If desired, you can use the TFTP protocol to import a list of usernames and passwords from a text
file on a TFTP server to the PowerConnect switch. The text file to be imported must be in the
following ASCII format.
[delete-all]
[no] username <username1> password <password1> <cr>
[no] username <username2> password <password2> <cr>
...
The [delete-all] keyword indicates that the user records in the text file will replace the user records
in the specified local user database on the PowerConnect switch. If the [delete-all] keyword is not
present, the new user records will be added to the specified local user database on the
PowerConnect switch. The [delete-all] keyword is optional. If present, it must appear on the first
line, before the first user record in the text file.
The optional [no] keyword indicates that the user entry will be deleted from the specified local user
database on the PowerConnect switch.
User records that already exist in the local user database will be updated with the information in
the text file when it is uploaded to the switch.
For <username1>, <username2>, etc., enter up to 31 ASCII characters.
