Security Settings (Option 6)

Note: You can change security settings by means of Telnet or serial connections only, not on the Web-Manager. We recommend that you set security over the dedicated network or over the serial setup to prevent eavesdropping.

CAUTION: Disabling both Telnet Setup and Port 77FE will prevent users from accessing the setup menu from the network. Disabling Port 77FE also disables the Web from configuring the device.

Select 6 to configure security settings.
