| There are really only two accounts which work for
telnet password protection.
First I'll describe the commands you tried - the "user" account.
The password_set command modifies the password for account, "user".
(it doesn't matter what "whoami" returns or what was set with "iam" ).
So, try this, where user entries are identified by " " (don't type
in the quotes):
ATMswitch-> "password_set"
Changing password for user
Old password: "username"
This operation ....
Do you want to continue this operation, y or n? (n): "y"
Enter new password: "whatever"
Verify: "whatever"
User account password updated and committed to flash storag
Note, the password above, "username", assumes the default
user password was in affect. "whatever" is the new password used for
example. Via Telnet, you should then see:
ATMswitch login: "user"
Password: "whatever"
ATMswitch->
You should be logged in...
Note the manual isn't clear that the account name you have to
use is "user". Also, the default password is "username" and
this isn't given in the manual, or is incorrect, depending on
where you look.
There is one other account called "manager" which can be used for
telnet with password protection. The default password for this is
"managername". The password can be changed only using the
menu commands (vs command line interface, described above).
The password_set command only changes the user password, while
the password_enable command turns protection on for both accounts.
See page 2-20 of the ATMswitch900 management guide (Jan, 1997)
The menu commands allow changing both account passwords, see pg 3-36.
Again - the default passwords in the manual are wrong.
