Your First Login Session

Changing the Login Password

Change the login password for admin user sessions by following the steps below:
Be sure that you have logged into the switch as user type admin (see
1
page 2-6).
Enter the keyword password and press Enter.
2
Enter your new password at the prompt.
3
Note. Be sure to remember or securely record all new passwords; overriding configured passwords on an
OmniSwitch is restricted.
4 You will be prompted to re-enter the password. Enter the password a second time.
New password settings are automatically saved in real time to the local user database; the user is not required
to enter an additional command in order to save the password information. Also note that new password
information is retained following a reboot. All subsequent login sessions, including those through the console
port, will require the new password to access the switch.
For detailed information on managing login information, including user names and passwords, refer to the
OmniSwitch AOS Release 6 Switch Management Guide.

Setting the System Time Zone

The switch's default time zone is UTC. If you require a time zone that is specific to your region, or if you need
to enable Daylight Savings Time (DST) on the switch, you can configure these settings via the system
timezone and system daylight-savings-time commands.
For detailed information on configuring a time zone for the switch, refer to the OmniSwitch AOS Release 6
Switch Management Guide.

Setting the Date and Time

Set the current time for the switch by entering system time, followed by the current time in hh:mm:ss.
To set the current date for the switch, enter system date, followed by the current date in mm/dd/yyyy.
