Step 4: From SUM, you can enter the Configuration Mode (CM). The CM is used
to configure the system globally, to enter specific configuration modes or to
configure specific elements, such as interfaces or protocols.

Enter the configure terminal command to enter the Configuration mode.

Example:

ALU# configure terminal

ALU(config)#

The above steps are enough to configure the OA-740 via console.

Step 5: To configure the system remotely (Telnet, SSH, and Modem), you need to
configure basic Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA)
configuration. AAA is a system in IP-based networking to control which users
have access to the system, what resources users have access to, and to keep
track of the activity of users over a network.

To enable AAA services on your system, enter the aaa services command in the
Configuration mode.

Example:

ALU(config)# aaa services

Step 6: Set the enable password (system password). To set the system
password, enter the following command:

enable {secret|password} [5] <password>

Example:

ALU(config)# enable secret test

Secret for level 15 is set

Note:

By default, only the console session is available without the enable password
configuration.
