NOTE: The first user automatically gets Administrator level privileges. At least one Admin-level
user account must be created for the Switch.

Password Protection

The switches do not have a default user name and password. One of the first tasks when settings up the Switch is to create user
accounts. Logging in using a predefined administrator-level user name will give the user privileged access to the Switch's
management software.
After the initial login, define new passwords for both default user names to prevent unauthorized access to the Switch, and record
the passwords for future reference.
To create an administrator-level account for the Switch, do the following:
1. At the CLI login prompt, enter create account admin followed by the <user name> and press the Enter key.
2. The Switch will then prompt the user to provide a password. Type the <password> used for the administrator
account being created and press the Enter key.
3. Once entered, the Switch will again ask the user to enter the same password again to verify it. Type the same
password and press the Enter key.
4. A "Success" response by the Switch will verify the creation of the new administrator.
