Console access includes both the menu interface and the CLI. There are two
levels of console access: Manager and Operator. For security, you can set a
password pair (username and password) on each of these levels.
Usernames are optional. Also, in the menu interface, you can configure
passwords, but not usernames. To configure usernames, use the CLI or the
web browser interface.
Usernames and passwords for Manager and Operator access can also be
configured using SNMP. For more information, refer to "Using SNMP To View
and Configure Switch Authentication Features" on page 5-21.
Beginning with software release W.14.xx, usernames and passwords for Man
ager and Operator access can also be configured using the Management
Interface Wizard. For more information, refer to "Quick Start: Using the
Management Interface Wizard" on page 1-11.
