Login Account Management

Currently WeOS only supports a single login user account, the admin user ac-
count. The same account is used when managing the switch via the Web or via
the CLI. Factory default settings for the user account is:

❼ Login: admin
❼ Password: westermo

The admin password can be changed, both via the Web and the CLI interfaces.
Account passwords can be at most 64 characters long (longer passwords are trun-
cated). Printable ASCII

1

characters except ”space” (ASCII 33-126) are allowed in

the password.

Section 7.1.3

provides information on how to proceed in case you forget the ad-

min password.

21.1.2

User Authentication Lists - Local Databases

Local user databases are useful for storing authentication credentials with no
need for any external infrastructure. The lists consist of user name and password
pairs which are stored in plain text. In the future it will also be possible to store
hashed passwords.
