Local Manager Account - Allied Telesis AT-8100L/8 User Manual

Chapter 1: AlliedWare Plus Command Line Interface

Local Manager Account

You must log on to manage the switch. This requires a valid user name
and password. The switch comes with one local manager account. The
user name of the account is "manager" and the default password is
"friend." The user name and password are case sensitive. This account
gives you access to all management modes and commands.
The default manager account is referred to as "local" because the switch
authenticates the user name and password itself. If more manager
accounts are needed, you can add up to eight more local manager
accounts. For instructions, refer to Chapter 84, "Local Manager Accounts"
on page 1371.
Another way to create more manager accounts is to transfer the task of
authenticating the accounts to a RADIUS or TACACS+ server on your
network. For instructions, refer to Chapter 96, "RADIUS and TACACS+
Clients" on page 1473.
The initial and default switch configuration supports up to three
management sessions at one time. The number of sessions can be
configured using the SERVICE MAXMANAGER command. The maximum
number of sessions is 3. See "SERVICE MAXMANAGER" on page 160.
