• managementethernet — Congures the Management port as the interface for the route, and associates the route with the
Management interface.
Congure management route
OS10(config)# management route 10.10.20.0/24 10.1.1.1
OS10(config)# management route 172.16.0.0/16 managementethernet
Congure user name and password
To set up remote access to OS10, create a new user name and password after you congure the management port and default route. The
user role is a mandatory entry.
Enter the password in clear text. It is converted to SHA-512 format in the running conguration. A password must have at least nine
alphanumeric and special characters, and at least ve dierent characters from the password previously used for the same username.
For backward compatibility with OS10 releases 10.3.1E and earlier, passwords entered in MD-5, SHA-256, and SHA-512 format are
supported.
To increase the required password strength, use the password-attributes command.
• Create a user name and password in CONFIGURATION mode.

CLI Basics
The OS10 CLI is the software interface you use to access a device running the software — from the console or through a network
connection. The CLI is an OS10-specic command shell that runs on top of a Linux-based OS kernel. By leveraging industry-standard tools
and utilities, the CLI provides a powerful set of commands that you can use to monitor and congure devices running OS10.
User accounts
OS10 denes two categories of user accounts — use admin for both the username and password to log into the CLI, or use
linuxadmin to log into the Linux shell.
NOTE
: You cannot delete the default admin and linuxadmin usernames.
