These commands are used to configure the operation of the 4000XA, 4180, 4280, 4284,
and 9480 devices.
Not all commands are visible all the time. Should the unit be logged out, only the

login

command is visible. The

reboot

command places the unit in the logged-out mode.

‰

Commands may be entered in upper or lower case.

‰

Parameters of the form name=<value> may use upper or lower case for name.

‰

Case is preserved for values.

‰

Backspace erases one character.

‰

Changes are cumulative.

After running a configuration command (especially those with many parameters)

it is always a good idea to run the corresponding

verify

command, to check for any

defaulted values which may need to be overridden.

BASE CONFIGURATION COMMANDS

6.1.1 LOGIN

Syntax #1: login passwd=<password>

(default password is: initial)

Syntax #2: login

This command is a security command required for accessing the bulk of the command
set. It is only available when the user is logged off. The command has two forms, and
three modes of operation.

The first syntax example provides legacy compatibility for operations systems that use
that form. The password must contain between one and seven alphanumeric characters.
The typed password is case sensitive.

In the second example, the password is not provided on the command line. The login
command will then prompt for a password. A password given at the prompt will not be
echoed. There is a timeout of approximately 30 seconds on the password prompt.

If one or more TACACS+ RADIUS Servers are defined, the second form is used to log
into the device. When used, a connection is made to the first available server. Prompts
for “Username” and “Password” are requested. These Usernames and Passwords are
administered on the TACACS+ RADIUS server; and not on the device.

6.1.2 LOGOUT

Syntax: logout

This command returns the unit to its logged-out mode, thus preventing unauthorized
access.

6.1.3 CHANGE

PASSWORD

Syntax: chgpass old=<password> new=<password> confirm=<password>
