IP Storage Router SR2122-2 User Guide
■
Passwords are entered in clear text. However, they are stored in an encrypted
format.
■
If the password contains embedded spaces, enclose it with single or double
quotes.
■
After initial entry, passwords display in their encrypted format. Use the
show aaa
command to display the local username database entries. The
following is an example display:
username "foo" password
"9 ea9bb0c57ca4806d3555f3f78a4204177a"
Note:
The first “
9
” in the example display indicates that the password is encrypted.
■
You can re-enter an encrypted password using the normal
username password
command. Enter the encrypted password in single
or double quotes, starting with
9
and a single space. For example, copying and
pasting password
"
9 ea9bb0c57ca4806d3555f3f78a4204177a
"
from the example above into the
username pat
command would create an
entry for
pat
in the username database. The user named
pat
would have the
same password as the user named
foo
. This functionality allows user names
and passwords to be restored from saved configuration files.
■
When entering a password, a zero followed by a single space indicates that the
following string is not encrypted;
9
followed by a single space indicates that
the following string is encrypted. To enter a password that starts with
9
or
zero, followed by one or more spaces, enter a zero and a space and then enter
the password string. For example, to enter the password
“
0 123
”
for the user
named
pat
, enter this command:
username
pat
password
“0 0 123”
To enter the password
“
9 73Zjm 5
”
for user name
lab1, use this command:
username
lab1
password
“0 9 73Zjm 5”
