Security

The AP can be configured as an open box, whereby all users have access with a common user name and password. The default user name is “guest” and the default password is “guest”. Stronger security can also be implemented where users and their unique passwords are created. In addition, Bluetooth devices can utilize the passkey mechanism, which is an additional password that must be used each time a connection is made. This passkey defaults to “belkin” but can be changed as required.

From the security page you can manage security settings for the following:

•Bluetooth Users

•Bluetooth Passkey

•Web Manager (Administrator) Password
