3.1.6.1 Change administrator password

For security purposes the administrator should change the factory default administrator password to a unique password. This will prevent unauthorized access to switch functions and CPUs. The password is needed to log in from any device, connected to any SERIMUX port in buffer mode.

To change the administrator password, from the Administrator main menu;

-press [7] to choose Advanced settings and press [Enter]. The Advanced settings menu will appear (Fig. 17)

-press [1] and a prompt for the old password will appear

-enter the old password (factory default password is "NTI") and press [Enter]

-enter a new password (maximum 31 ASCII characters), using the [Backspace] key to erase any characters entered

in error, and press [Enter]

-re-enter the password to confirm it, and press [Enter]

-a message "OK" will appear, press any key to return to the Advanced settings menu

NOTE: The password entered will be case sensitive so be sure to note what characters are used and what case they are in if any are alphabetical. The password characters are displayed as ‘*’ (asterisk) characters while entering them.

NOTE: If the administrator password is not known, the administrator must re-initialize the SERIMUX following the "Initialize SERIMUX Console Switch to default settings" instructions on page 26.
