Booting the Access Server for the First Time
The access server is administered using the Cisco command interpreter, called the EXEC.
You must log in to the access server before you can enter an EXEC command. For security
purposes the EXEC has two levels of access to commands, user EXEC mode and privileged
EXEC mode.
To enter the privileged mode you must enter the enable secret password on systems running
Cisco Internetwork Operating System (Cisco IOS) Release 10.2(3) or later, or the enable
password on systems running Cisco IOS releases prior to 10.2(3) or when using the boot
ROM monitor.

Using the Enable Secret and the Enable Password

The commands available at the user level are a subset of those available at the privileged
level. Because many privileged-level EXEC commands are used to set operating
parameters, you should password-protect these commands to prevent unauthorized use.
