Viewing Tools menu availability using the CLI

Use either of the following commands to view whether users can access the Tools menu.

```
show bootvar
```
```
show images
```

If a Tools menu password is set (either the default password or a configured password), users can access the Tools menu. If the Tools menu password is disabled, users cannot access the Tools menu.

Examples

The following example from a Network Security appliance shows that the Tools menu password is set, so users can access the Tools menu.

nx-05 > show bootvar
Installed images:

  Partition 1:
  wmps wMPS (wMPS) 7.4.0 xxx

  Partition 2:
  wmps wMPS (wMPS) 8.0.0 xxx

Last boot partition: 1
Next boot partition: 1

Boot manager admin password:      undisclosed password set
Boot manager tools menu password: undisclosed password set
...

The following example shows that the Tools menu password is disabled, so users cannot access the Tools menu.

nx-01 > show images
Installed images:

  Partition 1: 
  wmps wMPS (wMPS) 7.4.0 ... 
  
  Partition 2:
  wmps wMPS (wMPS) 8.0.0 ...
