Dell PowerConnect 6248 - Set Console Password

I set a console password by typing the following. (Replace "pass123" with your password)

console> enable
console# configure
console(config)# aaa authentication login default line
console(config)# aaa authentication enable default line
console(config)# line console
console(config-line)# login authentication default
console(config-line)# enable authentication default
console(config-line)# password pass123
console(config-line)# exit
console(config)# exit

 Do not forget to exit "config mode" and type:

Copy running-config startup-config

Typing "reload" will reboot your switch and you will be prompted to login
