Default IP user credentials
The Management application uses default user names and passwords to access devices when
contacting these devices through the command line interface (CLI) on the network. You can enter a
list of default names and passwords in the Management application before running discovery.
Discovery uses this list to contact devices to determine the correct user name and password for the
device. The first time discovery contacts a device, the Management application enters the default
names and passwords for the device into the Management application database. This feature
saves you the trouble of entering authentication passwords for every newly discovered device.
NOTE
Discovery does not remove an invalid user name or password from the device information unless it
is able to replace it with a valid one.
The Management application groups default user names and passwords by the following password
types:
• Read/Write Login Prompt — The login prompt the device uses when logging in by Telnet or CLI
to the device.
• Read/Write Enable Prompt — The enable prompt the device uses in CLI mode to go to device
enable mode.
