This chapter describes how to manage passwords, user accounts, roles, authentication servers, system groups, and Gaia Portal clients.

Note - When a user logs in to Gaia, the Gaia Portal navigation tree displayed and Gaia Clish commands that are available depend on the role or roles assigned to the user. If the user's roles do not provide access to a feature, the user does not see the feature in the Gaia Portal navigation tree or in the list of commands. If the user has read-only access to a feature, they can see the Gaia Portal page, but the controls are disabled. Similarly, the user can run show commands, but not set, add or delete commands.

Change My Password

A Gaia user can change their Gaia password.

Changing My Password - Gaia Clish

Description

Change your own Gaia password, in an interactive dialog.

Syntax

set selfpasswd

Warning

We do not recommend to use this command:
set selfpasswd oldpass <Old Password> passwd <New Password>
This is because the passwords are stored as plain text in the command history.
Instead, use the set selfpasswd command.

Important - After you add, configure, or delete features, run the save config command to save the settings permanently.
