Enhancements in Release F.02.02
Username Assignment and Prompt
Username Assignment and Prompt
Prior to release F.02.02, assigning a manager or operator username to the switch required you to use
the Web browser interface. Also, only the Web browser interface required you to enter a username
at logon if one was configured for the privilege level you were accessing. Beginning with release
F.02.02 you can use the CLI
password command to assign a manager- and/or operator-level username,
and the CLI and Web browser interface will require you to enter a username at logon if one is
configured.
Note
On the series 2500 switches, a username is optional.
Syntax: password < manager | operator > [user-name < user-name-str >]
For example, to use the CLI to configure a manager user name of
sysman1 and a manager password
of
top1mgr:
HP2512(config# password manager user-name sysman1
New password: *******
Please retype new password: *******
To use the CLI to remove all user name and password protection from the switch:
HP2512(config)# no password
