<p><b>Example 3: Accessing a Remote System Using a Password</b>

<p>This command shows the display which prompts for the remaining values of the command. After you specify the appropriate values beyond the ones specified on the command example, remote analysis begins.

<p>This command is similar to the preceding example except that the PASSWORD parameter is not specified. The same prompt display is shown, however, the system assumes that the remote system has a security level of 10, that is, it does not use passwords. Another prompt display appears after this command is specified. After the user specifies the appropriate values on this display, remote analysis begins.
