Configuring the SCP Administrator Password
To configure the scpadmin (SCP administrator) password, first connect to the switch via the
RS-232 management console. For security reasons, the scpadmin password can be configured
only when connected directly to the switch console.
To configure the password, enter the following CLI command. At factory default settings, the
current SCP administrator password is admin.
Note – The SCP-only administrator password must be different than the regular administrator
password.
Using SSH and SCP Client Commands
This section shows the format for using some client commands. The examples below use
205.178.15.157 as the IP address of a sample switch.
To Log In to the Switch
Syntax:
Example:
To Download the Switch Configuration Using SCP
Syntax:
Example:
>> /cfg/sys/sshd/scpadm
Changing SCP-only Administrator password; validation required...
Enter current administrator password: <password>
Enter new SCP-only administrator password: <new password>
Re-enter new SCP-only administrator password: <new password>
New SCP-only administrator password accepted.
ssh <switch IP address>
or
ssh -l <login-name> <switch IP address>
>> # ssh 205.178.15.157
>> # ssh -l <login-name> 205.178.15.157
scp <username>@<switch IP address>:getcfg <local filename>
>> # scp scpadmin@205.178.15.157:getcfg ad4.cfg
