Setting Up Default Device Contact Information
For simplicity in managing multiple devices in large networks,
administrators typically use the same logins, passwords, community
strings and so on, for multiple devices. Therefore, to save time when
adding new devices, EPICenter provides default values for these
communication parameters.
To save time when you add your own network devices to the EPICenter
inventory, you can configure the default values to those used in your own
network.
To change the default communication values, select Default
communications settings from the Tools menu.
EPICenter uses the Extreme Networks switch default values:
■
Login as admin with no password
■
SSH2 disabled
■
For Cisco devices only, the default Cisco enable password (none)
■
Default SNMP v1 community strings public (for read) and private (for
write)
■
SNMP V3 user initialmd5
■
SNMP V3 privacy set to No Privacy, with no password
■
SNMP V3 authentication set to MD5 Authentication, with password
initialmd5
