Setting the boot PROM password

The boot PROM password provides an additional layer of security by protecting the boot PROM from
unauthorized use. Setting a recovery string for the boot PROM password enables you to recover a lost
boot PROM password by contacting your switch service provider. Without the recovery string, a lost boot
PROM password cannot be recovered.
Set the boot PROM password and the recovery string on all switches. If your site procedures dictate that
you set the boot PROM password without the recovery string, see
To set the boot PROM password with a recovery string, see the section that applies to your switch model.
NOTE:
Setting the boot PROM password requires accessing the boot prompt, which stops traffic flow
through the switch until the switch is rebooted. Perform this procedure during planned down time.
"Without a recovery
string" on page 69.
