Switch password management

Switch password management enables you to change or reset the switch password for one or more
users across multiple switches.

NOTE

You can change the switch password for root and factory users only by using the Change Password
button because the current password is mandatory.

NOTE

If you change the switch password for one Fabric ID (FID) user name, the switch password changes
for all FIDs that have the same user name.

NOTE

You should change the switch password before the expiriration date; however, if the switch password
expires, you must provide valid credentials in the Discovery dialog box.
