Default option.

When the Console Switch Password field is set to Required (for Telnet, for
Console, or for Both), this field allows read-write password access to the CI of a
standalone switch . Users can log in to the CI using the correct password (see
default) and can change any parameter.
You can change the default passwords for read-only access and read-write
access to a private password.
Default Value:

Caution:
If you change the system-supplied default passwords, be
sure to write the new passwords down and keep them in a safe place. If
you forget the new passwords, you cannot access the console interface.
In that case, contact Nortel Networks for help.

Paßwörter ändern, notieren Sie sich die neuen Paßwörter, und
bewahren Sie sie an einem sicheren Ort auf. Falls Sie die neuen
Paßwörter vergessen, können Sie nicht mehr auf die

Nortel Networks, um Unterstützung zu erhalten.
