command line interface. Without Admin authority, you are limited to viewing switch
status and configuration. The Images account is for exchanging files with the
switch using FTP.
The factory switch configuration does not enforce user accounts and passwords.
This means that no account name and password are required to add a fabric and
modify switch configurations using SANbox Manager. To enforce user accounts
and authority, set the SecurityEnabled parameter to True using the Set Setup

faceplate display, and select User Accounts.... If fabric security is enabled, your
account must have Admin authority to manage user accounts.
