bof
Supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document, including those operating in access-uplink mode
This command configures a BOF password. The user must provide the password to edit the BOF parameters in the boot loader.
This command also implements a mechanism for password recovery. If the user forgets the password, it can be reset to factory default. When a password is reset, as a security measure to prevent a malicious access to the configuration files, the system also resets the flash to factory defaults (that is, it removes all files from the flash, except the boot image file (cf1:\boot.tim) and TiMOS image file (cf1:\both.tim)), and reboots the node with the factory default settings. After boot up, the user must set up the box using the same steps used to boot the box the first time after it was received from the factory. During bootup after a reboot, the user can use the factory default password "password" to edit the BOF parameters. After the factory default password is used, Nokia recommends that the user should change the password.
Nokia strongly recommends that you should not rename the cf1:\boot.tim and cf1:\both.tim files. These files should be retained in case the system needs them during the password recovery procedure. Nokia also recommends making a backup of all the image files, configuration files, and other data.
Enabling or disabling the secure-bof-password command resets the BOF password to the default password. See secure-bof-password for more information.
The no form of this command deletes the configured password and resets to the default password. The no form is supported only when secure-bof-password enable is configured.

This command allows the user to enable or disable the serial port console for use.
In remote deployments, this command provides additional security mechanism for the user. The console can be disabled to prevent unauthorized system access.
The console is always available for use when the device is booting up. This command is applicable only after the TiMOS image (both.tim) is up and running successfully. If the user executes this command in the BOF CLI context, the command takes effect only during the next boot. A BOF save operation must be performed after executing the console-disabled command.
The no form of this command enables the console.

When this command is issued to edit the BOF used for the most recent boot, the BOF and the active configuration are changed immediately.
The no form of this command reverts to the default value.
