Default Usernames and Security Levels
Each Username has a security level associated to it. Username 3 is the least
privileged and the security level goes up to Username 0 which is the most
privileged.
Table 3-8
Default Username
Default Username Description
other (username 3) Gives users access to execute commands ending in
Show , such as dateShow .
user (username 2) Gives users access to all Show commands plus any
commands in the help menu that do not change a
Switch state, such as
version . This level is the
recommended level for monitoring Switch activity.
admin (username 1) Gives users access to all Show commands, plus any
commands in the help menu. Most Switch
administration is performed at this level.
root (username 0) Gives access to an extensive command set that can
significantly alter system performance. Root commands
are beyond the scope of this manual. Compaq
recommends consulting customer service before using
root commands.
The system administrator may assign different Usernames than those listed, if
desired. The User at a particular Security Level, however, has the same
privileges regardless of the name assigned.
CAUTION: Access to root should be limited to those responsible for maintaining
and modifying the Fabric. Commands available to root, if used inappropriately,
can cause the Switch to stop functioning or to function abnormally. Root should
only be used at the request of Compaq’s customer service.
