Cisco Switch 2960X
I just got 5 cisco 2960X swtiches and I am trying to login on privilege mode thru the console. But when I am in the user mode prompt and enter enable "cisco" password does not work. I try with all 5 switches still does not work. am I missing something?

Predrag the problem is I can not get into the privileged mode in the first place to change the privilege mode password.
in the attachment you can see where I am stuck after trying the cisco default password "cisco".
These are brand new switches so I was expecting the password to be the default
Thanks

Brand new switches don't have a password set - the config is completely blank.
Can you copy/paste exactly what you get in your console window?? Even better... can you just copy the whole session and attach??

Someone did the express setup before I noticed it and the privilege password got assing
If that is so, you need to enter configuration mode and issue
# enable
# configuration terminal
# enable secret cisco
That will create password for entering into privileged mode.
If I did not understand you well and you are trying to enter privileged mode you need to issue
# enable
and you will be prompt for password to enter privileged mode.
