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 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.
By default, the operator account is disabled and has no password.
Admin The super user administrator has complete access to all command modes 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, access to each user level can be disabled by setting
the password to an empty value.
Once you enter the administrator password and it is verified, you are given complete access to the
HP 10GbE switch.
Idle timeout
By default, the HP 10GbE switch disconnects 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.
To change this parameter, see the “System configuration” section in the “Configuration Commands”
chapter.
