Security Management and Password Configuration

System security is handled through the AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting)
mechanism that manages user access rights, privileges, and management methods. AAA uses both
local and remote user databases. Data encryption is handled through the SSH mechanism.
The system is delivered with no default password configured; all passwords are user-defined. If a
user-defined password is lost, a password recovery procedure can be invoked from the Boot menu.
The procedure is applicable for the local terminal only and allows a one-time access to the switch
from the local terminal with no password entered.
Configuring Security Passwords
The security passwords can be configured for the following services:
• Console
• Telnet
• SSH
• HTTP
• HTTPS
NOTE:
When creating a user name, the default priority is "1", which allows access but not configuration
rights. A priority of "15" must be set to enable access and configuration rights to the switch.
