Managing user accounts

Only the Admin account can manage user accounts with the User Account Administration dialogs.
However, any user can modify their own password. Select

Switch > User Accounts in the faceplate display

to open the User Account Administration dialog.

A user account consists of the following:

Account name or login

Password

Authority level

Expiration date

Switches come from the factory with the following user accounts:

The Admin account is the only user that can manage all user accounts with the User Account
Administration dialogs. The Admin account can create, remove, or modify user accounts, and change
account passwords. The Admin account can also view and modify the switch and its configuration. The
Admin account can not be removed.

Users with Admin authority can view and modify the switch and its configuration. Users without Admin
authority are limited to viewing switch status and configuration.

The Images account is used to exchange files with the switch using FTP and can not be removed.

NOTE:

If the same user account exists on a switch and its RADIUS server, that user can login with either

password, but the authority and account expiration will always come from the switch database.
