Menu CLI and Password Recovery

375

Cisco Small Business 300 Series Managed Switch Administration Guide 

The Menu CLI interface is only allowed to users if their read permissions are Both 
or Plaintext Only. Other users are rejected. Sensitive data in the Menu CLI is always 
displayed as plaintext.

Password recovery is currently activated from the boot menu and allows the user 
to log on to the terminal without authentication. If SSD is supported, this option is 
only permitted if the local passphrase is identical to the default passphrase. If a 
device is configured with a user-defined passphrase, the user is unable to activate 
password recovery. 

The SSD feature is configured in the following pages:

•

SSD properties are set in the Properties page.

•

SSD rules are defined in the SSD Rules page.

Only users with SSD read permission of Plaintext-only or Both are allowed to set 
SSD properties.
