User Management Template
Use this tab to manage the default users and, if desired, require a password with the highest user privilege level when using the Command Line Interface.
Default User Accounts
-
Each appliance has two default user accounts, admin and monitor, that cannot be deleted.
-
You can, however, assign a new password to either one and apply it to any appliances you want.
Command Line Interface Privileges
-
The Command Line Interface (CLI) for physical EdgeConnect appliances has three command modes. In order of increasing permissions, they are User EXEC Mode, Privileged EXEC Mode, and Global Configuration Mode.
-
When you first log in to an EdgeConnect appliance via a console port, you are in User EXEC Mode. This provides access to commands for many non-configuration tasks, such as checking the appliance status.
-
To access the next level, Privileged EXEC Mode, you would enter the enable command. With this template, you can choose to associate and enforce a password with the enable command.
