VSP user Controls

graemedench — Fri, 04 Feb 2022 12:53:20 GMT

Hi I'm trying to do some house keeping on our switches. Voss 8.4.2.0 4450GSX is the current one I'm working on

I'm a bit stuck here. I want to disable the default RO & RW Users but I cant find the commands for this? I also want to re-rename the original RWA user but when i try the command I originally used to change it it only lets me change the password. And finally I want to remove a created user. I probably cant see for looking but I cant find the commands to do this.

Hello, thanks for your patience here. The instructions for how to change the default username was mistakenly left out of the product documentation, it's been added to an upcoming release. The rest of the information below came from the VOSS User Guide.

The “no password access-level <word>” command can be used to disable access levels other than the RWA.

Block CLI access to Layer 1:

Switch:1>enable

Switch:1#configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

Switch:1(config)#no password access-level l1

Removing a created user is captured in the “Creating Multiple CLI Users” subsection of the VOSS User Guide:

Delete a user:

Switch:1>enable

Switch:1#configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

Switch:1(config)#no username smith

The specified username will be deleted! Contiune (y/n) ? Y

Switch:1(config)#show cli username smith

Username does not exit

Change the default username:

Switch:1>enable

Switch:1#config t

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

Switch:1(config)#username EXUser ?

level Which access level

Switch:1(config)#username EXUser level ?

l1 Change Layer 1 read write enable password

l2 Change Layer 2 read write enable password

l3 Change Layer 3 read write enable password

ro Change read only enable password

rw Change read write enable password

rwa Change read write all enable password

Switch:1(config)#username EXUser level ro

Do you want to change username for the default RO user ? (y/n) ? y

Enter the old password : **

Enter the New password : *****

Re-enter the New password : *****

Hope that helps!
