composed of digits, English letters and under dashes only.

view all the settings of different functions. “Guest” means that you can only view
the settings without the right to edit and modify. It is “admin” by default.
0 —— Specify the encryption type. 0 indicates that an unencrypted password
will follow. By default, the encryption type is 0.

characters or symbols. The password is case sensitive, allows digits, English
letters (case sensitive), underlines and sixteen special characters
( !$%'()*,-./[]{|} ). By default, it is empty.

which you can copy from another switch’s configuration file. After the encrypted
