Local database user accounts

User add, change, and delete operations are subject to the subset rule: An admin with ADlist 0- 1 0 or
LFlist 1- 1 0 cannot perform operations on an admin, user, or any role with an ADlist 1 1-25 or LFlist 1 1- 1 28.
The user account being changed must have an ADlist or LFlist that is a subset of the account that is making
the change.
In addition to the default administrative and user accounts, Fabric OS supports up to 252 user-defined
accounts in each Logical Switch (domain). These accounts expand your ability to track account access and
audit administrative activities.

Default accounts

Table 12 lists the predefined accounts offered by Fabric OS that are available in the local switch user
database. The password for all default accounts for each switch should be changed during the initial
installation and configuration.
