CN4093 Application Guide for N/OS 8.4
It is recommended that you change the administrator and user passwords after
initial configuration and as regularly as required under your network security
policies.
To change the administrator password, you must login using the administrator
password.
Note: If you download user and password information to a switch running a
version of ENOS earlier than 8.4, or if you revert the switch to a version of ENOS
earlier than 8.4, your passwords will not be transferred because the encryption
algorithm changed.
The administrator has complete access to all menus, information, and
configuration commands, including the ability to change both the user and
administrator passwords.
The default administrator account is USERID. The default password for the
administrator account is PASSW0RD (with a zero). To change the administrator
password, use the following procedure:
CN 4093(config)# access user administrator-password <password>
The user login has limited control of the switch. Through a user account, you can
view switch information and statistics, but you can't make configuration changes.
The default password for the user account is user. This password can be changed
from the user account. The administrator can change all passwords, as shown in
the following procedure.
CN 4093(config)# access user user-password <password>
