Hi,
I've set the console password on a switch however when I hyperterm onto the switch I don't get prompted for a password.
Below is the commands I put in for the console password.
Line console 0
password (password)
Login
Can anyone explain where I maybe going wrong.
Thanks

Hi Mark,
It just let me into the switch. The only config is telnet, enable and secret passwords.
Thanks

Hi Mark/Dol
The switch is a cisco c2960G but I think I've sorted it now. It looks like the switch need a reboot before the console password will take effect.
Thanks for all the help anyway.
