Setting the Privileged Mode Password

You can set the Privileged mode password that controls access to privilege mode. By default,
the Corecess R1-SW24L2B does not require the Privileged mode password for entering the
Privileged mode.

You can specify the password for the Privileged mode using enable passwd command in the
Global configuration mode. The following example sets the Privileged mode password to

R1SW24

’ by the enable passwd command configuration in the Global mode.

(config)# enable passwd R1SW24

(config)#


After setting the Privileged mode password, you should enter the password to go to the
Privileged mode from user mode as follows:

> enable

Password: R1SW24

Privileged mode is signified by the # prompt. In the Privileged mode, you can enter all
commands to view statistics and configure the system.
