FOX61x Specific Parameters
FOX61x Default Passwords
FOX61x NEs use a hierarchy of 5 user classes, each class protected by a separate password. The default passwords at FOXMAN‑UN installation time are undefined (empty).
If all FOX61x NEs managed by FOXMAN‑UN are to be protected by a specific set of 5 not empty passwords, these have to be entered every time a FOX61x NE is created. Alternatively the default passwords can be modified accordingly. Then during NE creation, the passwords need not be set.
Syntax for default password entries in the nem.conf file
encrypted password | user class |
dflt_sessionmgr_pwd | session manager |
dflt_manager_pwd | manager |
dflt_maintenance_pwd | maintenance |
dflt_information_pwd | information |

Please note:
• The default values for manager and session manager usernames and passwords are encrypted as “nemadm” and “sessionmanager”, respectively.
• The usernames and passwords should be the same as those set in the radius server
• The user controlled sessions include all connections to a NE that are directly user controlled such as FOXCST GUI, CLI and CLI MUX NBI.
