Configuring the
Management
Passwords
There are two levels of management access on an AT-8400 switch:
Manager and Operator. When you log in as a Manager, you can view and
configure all of a switch’s operating parameters. When you log in as an
Operator, you can only view the operating parameters. As an Operator,
you cannot change any values.
Log in as a Manager or an Operator by entering the appropriate login id
and password when you start an AT-S60 management session. The
default password for Manager access is “friend.” The default password
for Operator access is “operator.” The passwords are case-sensitive.
To change the Manager or Operator password, perform the following
procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, type 4 to select Administration.
2. From the Administration, type 7 to select Set Password.
The Passwords Menu is shown in Figure 14.

Caution
Allied Telesyn recommends that you do not use spaces or special
characters, such as asterisks (*) and exclamation points (!), in a
password if you are managing the switch from a web browser. Many
web browsers do not accept special characters in passwords.
