Managing User Accounts
Only the Admin account can manage user accounts with the User Account 
Administration dialogs. However, any user can modify their own password. To 
open the User Account Administration dialogs, open the Switch menu in the 
faceplate display, and select User Accounts.... A user account consists of the 
following:
„
Account name or login
„
Password
„
Authority level
„
Expiration date
Switches come from the factory with the following user accounts:
The Admin account is the only user that can manage all user accounts with the 
User Account Administration dialogs. The Admin account can create, remove, or 
modify user accounts, and change account passwords. The Admin account can 
also view and modify the switch and its configuration with SANsurfer Switch 
Manager. The Admin account can not be removed. 
Users with Admin authority can view and modify the switch and its configuration 
using SANsurfer Switch Manager. Users without Admin authority are limited to 
viewing switch status and configuration. 
The Images account can not be removed, and is required for exchanging files with 
the switch using FTP.
