Accessing the switch

Setting up user IDs
The administrator can configure up to 10 user accounts.
To configure an end-user account, perform the following steps:
1. Select a user ID to define.
>> # /cfg/sys/access/user/uid 1
2. Define the user name and password.
>> User ID 1 # name jane (Assign name “jane” to user ID 1)
Current user name:
New user name: jane
3. Define the user access level. By default, the end user is assigned to the user access level. To change
the user’s access level, enter the user Class of Service (cos) command, and select one of the
available options.
>> User ID 1 # cos <user|oper|admin>
4. Enable the user ID.
>> # /cfg/sys/access/user/uid <#>/ena
Once an end user account is configured and enabled, the user can login to the switch using the
username/password combination. The level of switch access is determined by the user CoS for the
account. The CoS corresponds to the user access levels described in the User access levels table.
