Logging In

Once the Administrator Utility connects to the unit you specified, a login window appears:

Only those who have Configuration privileges (see User Management; Permissions, p. 60) are allowed to log in.

Provide a valid Username and Password, then Click Login to continue.

Note: The default Username is administrator; the default Password is password. You can change these to whatever you prefer (see User Management, p. 60) after you have logged in.

While the Utility processes the login request, the following message appears:

Note: If you supplied an invalid login, the authentication routine will return a message informing you that the “server is busy.” This is done as a security measure to confuse and discourage hackers from trying to discover a valid Username and Password. If you see this message, try logging in again being careful with the Username and Password
