You must select Enable Device Management Settings for
Switch Engine/EXOS Switches under Global Settings. To do
this, under your admin name at the top right of the ExtremeCloud IQ window, select .
For Switch Engine devices only, use device credentials to set up login
information for root or read-only administrators, change the name and password of
the root admin, or add a read-only admin to a device. Device-level credentials offer
access to devices through Telnet, SSH, or console connections.
A root admin has complete privileges, which include the ability to add, modify, and
delete other administrators, and to reset the configuration. A read-only admin can
view settings but cannot add, modify, or delete them. You can require that an admin
be prompted for a password before accessing high-level privileged CLI commands.

uppercase character.

Repeat the previous steps for
the Read Only Administrator.

Select Save Device Credentials.

To revert back to the network policy, from the Devices list,

drop-down, use the Revert Device Template to Device Defaults option.
