Registering the Software

         We have to register the software ( which is provided on the device ) to protect the authorized user's legal rights to use the software. If we don't register it untill the trial period then the device will automatically restart every 30 mins.

Registration serial number is mentioned on the buying letter of authorization of software.

[H3C] license register serial-number

To verify:

[H3C] display license

Displaying and maintaining CLI login


Below are sample commands and available in any view

§             Displaying information about the user or all users that are being used

               display users
               display users all

§             Displaying user interface information

               display user-interface vty 4

§             Releasing a specified user interface

               ffree user-interface 4

Multiple users can log in to the system to simultaneously configure the router. In some circumstances, when the administrator wants to make configurations without interruption from the users that have logged in through other user interfaces, the administrator can execute the command to release the connections established on the specified user interfaces.

You cannot use this command to release the connection that you are using.

Switching to privilege levels


You can switch to other privilege level temporarily without logging out or terminating the current connection.

After the switch, you can continue to configure the switch without the need of re login, but the commands that they can execute have changed.

For example, if your privilege level is 3, you can configure system parameters. After switching to privilege level 0, you can execute only some simple commands, like ping and tracert, and only a few display commands.

The switching operation is effective for the current login. After you re-log in, your privilege restores to the original level. 

  §            Set the authentication mode for user privilege level switch

                 [H3C]super authentication-mode { local | scheme } 
            
                 The authentication mode is local by default.
 
  §             Configure the password for user privilege level switch
             
                  [H3C]super password [ level user-level ] { simple | cipher } password 
           
                  This is required if the authentication mode is set to local
       (that is, specify the local keyword when setting the authentication mode).
                 
                   By default, no privilege level switch password is configured


Configuring Scheme authentication for Console login


   §            Enter AUX user interface views 

                 [H3C]user-interface aux 0

   §           Specify the scheme authentication mode

                 [H3C-ui-aux0]authentication-mode scheme

For Telnet, SSH and Console access, we have to allow the access to the user in the user configuration according to the type of service we want to allow. 

           e.g.

                [H3C]local-user test

                [ H3C-luser-test]service-type telnet ssh terminal

Note- ‘terminal’ is for ‘Console’ access



Configuring password authentication for Console login


By default, you can log in to the router through the console port without authentication and have user privilege level 3 after login

  •      Enter AUX user interface views
                  [H3C]user-interface aux 0

  •      Specify the password authentication mode
                  [H3C-ui-aux0]authentication-mode password 

            By default, you can log in to the router through the AUX port with password authentication and have user privilege level 0 after login.

  •      Set the local password
                  [H3C-ui-aux0]set authentication password { cipher | simple } password 

            By default, no local password is set.


Bring It On........ By Steven Curtis Chapman

 




I didn’t come lookin’ for trouble
And I don’t want to fight needlessly
But I’m not gonna hide in a bubble
If trouble comes for me
I can feel my heart beating faster
I can tell something’s coming down
But if it’s gonna make me grow stronger then…

Bring it on
Let the lightning flash, let the thunder roll, let the storm winds blow
Bring it on
Let the trouble come, let the hard rain fall, let it make me strong
Bring it on

Now, maybe you’re thinkin’ I’m crazy
And maybe I need to explain some things
‘Cause I know I’ve got an enemy waiting
Who wants to bring me pain
But what he never seems to remember
What he means for evil God works for good
So I will not retreat or surrender
Now, I don’t want to sound like some hero
‘Cause it’s God alone that my hope is in
But I’m not gonna run from the very things
That would drive me closer to Him
So bring it on

Bring it on
Let the lightning flash, let the thunder roll, let the storm winds blow
Bring it on
Let the trouble come, let it make me fall on the One who’s strong
Bring it on
Let the lightning flash, let the thunder roll, let the storm winds blow
Bring it on
Let me be made weak so I’ll know the strength of the One who’s strong
Bring it on
Bring it on
