MEMO:
If you attempt to enter an existing user name, an error message will be displayed.
NOTE 1:
 For security, register at least one user with the administrator right. If no user is registered with 
the administrator right, no login authentication is performed. Bear this in mind.
NOTE 2:
 The password should be a combination of characters and digits that is difficult for other people 
to guess.
Changing passwords
You can change your password once you have logged in. To do this, use the password command in global
config mode.
In this example, the password of the user who has logged in with the user name “nec-admin” and the pass-
word “to34kyo61” is changed to “kyo69to397”.
NOTE:
Only the passwords of those users who have logged in can be changed. The passwords of other 
users cannot be changed.
