Password Protection The DGS-6604 does not have a default user name and password. One of the first tasks when settings up the Switch is to create user accounts. Logging in using a predefined administrator-level user name will give the user privileged access (Privileged EXEC) to the Switch's management software. After the initial login define new passwords for both default user names, to prevent unauthorized access to the Switch, and record the passwords for future reference. To create an administrator-level account for the Switch, do the following: Creating User Accounts The Switch supports user accounts with different access levels. The following access levels can be assigned to user accounts, Level 1, Level 2, Level 12, & Level 15. If another level is specified, an error message will be displayed on the console. When a user logs in with a Level 1 or Level 2 account, the user will access the Switch in user EXEC mode. In order to access higher privilege levels, a user needs to use the enable command. However, if a user logs onto the Switch using a Level 1 user account, they will not be allowed to enter privileged EXEC mode. When a user logs in with a user account that has a privilege level of 12 or 15, the user will directly enter privileged EXEC mode. 62

The Switch CM is assigned a unique MAC address by the factory. This MAC address cannot be changed, and
can be found by entering the command
show system
into the command line interface. The MAC address of the
CM management ethernet port can be seen below in the information section for Slot 1
The Switch's MAC address also appears in the Device Information and System Information windows of the Web-
based management interface.
Password Protection
The DGS-6604 does not have a default user name and password. One of the first tasks when settings up the
Switch is to create user accounts. Logging in using a predefined administrator-level user name will give the user
privileged access (Privileged EXEC) to the Switch's management software.
After the initial login define new passwords for both default user names, to prevent unauthorized access to the
Switch, and record the passwords for future reference.
To create an administrator-level account for the Switch, do the following:
Creating User Accounts
The Switch supports user accounts with different access levels. The following access levels can be assigned to
user accounts, Level 1, Level 2, Level 12, & Level 15. If another level is specified, an error message will be
displayed on the console.
When a user logs in with a Level 1 or Level 2 account, the user will access the Switch in user EXEC mode. In
order to access higher privilege levels, a user needs to use the
enable
command. However, if a user logs onto
the Switch using a Level 1 user account, they will not be allowed to enter privileged EXEC mode.
When a user logs in with a user account that has a privilege level of 12 or 15, the user will directly enter privileged
EXEC mode.
