Change password of admin and user:
username admin NEWPASSWORD username user NEWPASSWORD
The VDX6720 uses an old version of sshd with an old HostKeyAlgorithm that newer versions of ssh no longer allow by default.
To connect to a VDX6720 with ssh you must provide the correct older HostKeyAlgorithm when connecting.
ssh -o HostKeyAlgorithms=ssh-rsa root@10.10.0.10
When logging in as root you do not have access to the switch management tooling until you start:
noscli
copy running-config startup-config
A VDX6720 does not provide scp, but a cat via ssh redirected to a file can be used for creating a back-up of the current startup-config:
ssh -o HostKeyAlgorithms=ssh-rsa root@10.10.0.10 "cat /var/config/vcs/scripts/startup-config" > /data/backup/switch04/`date +%Y-%m-%d`\ -\ startup-config
show running-config int te 4/0/3
For a range of interfaces:
conf t int te 4/0/3-5 # Now enter the configuration commands that should apply to port 3, 4, and 5.
For 2 interfaces:
conf t int te 4/0/1,6 # Now enter the configuration commands that should apply to port 1, and 6.
Show the media status of interface 1 on switch with id 4.
show media te 4/0/1
