The parameters are described below:

This parameter specifies a name for the switch (for example, Sales
Ethernet switch). Entering a value for this parameter is optional.
Note
You should assign each switch a name. The names can help you
identify the various switches in your network. This can help you
avoid performing a configuration procedure on the wrong switch.
Administrator
This parameter specifies the name of the network administrator
responsible for managing the switch. Entering a value for this
parameter is optional.
Comments
This parameter specifies additional information about the Fast
Ethernet switch, such as its location (e.g., Floor 4, Wiring closet
402B). Entering a value for this parameter is optional.
Manager Password

These parameters are used to change the administrator’s login
password for the switch. The password can be from 0 to 20
characters in length. The same password is used for both local and
remote management sessions. To create a new password, enter
the new password into both fields. The default password is
“admin”.
Caution
You should not use spaces or special characters, such as asterisks (*)
and exclamation points (!), in a password if you will be managing the
switch from a web browser. Many web browsers cannot handle
special characters in passwords.
Operator Password
Operator Confirm Password
These parameters are used to change the operator’s login
password for the switch. The password can be from 0 to 20
characters in length. The same password is used for both local and
remote management sessions. To create a new password, enter
the new password into both fields. The default password for
operator is “operator”.
