Table 2 User access levels
User account
Description and tasks performed
User
The user has no direct responsibility for switch management. He or she can view all
switch status information and statistics, but cannot make any configuration changes to
the switch. The user account is enabled by default, and the default password is user.
Oper
The operator manages all functions of the switch. The operator can reset ports or the
entire switch. By default, the operator account is disabled and has no password.
Admin
The super user administrator has complete access to all menus, information, and
configuration commands on the switch, including the ability to change both the user
and administrator passwords. The admin account is enabled by default, and the
default password is admin.
NOTE: With the exception of the admin user, setting the password to an empty value can disable access to
each user level.
Once you enter the administrator password and it is verified, you are given complete access to the switch.
After logging in, the Main Menu of the CLI is displayed. See the ―Menu basics‖ chapter for a summary of the Main

Idle timeout
By default, the switch will disconnect the console, Telnet, or SSH session after five minutes of inactivity. This
function is controlled by the idle timeout parameter, which can be set from 1 to 60 minutes. For information on
changing this parameter, see the ―System configuration‖ section in the ―Configuration Menu‖ chapter.
