CHANGING THE ADMINISTRATION PASSWORD
The first time you launch the Configuration Management System on the device or after you reset a device to factory defaults, you are prompted to set an administration password. Although a password is not required, 3Com recommends that you set a password to protect against unauthorized access. After you set the password, you must enter it each time you launch the configuration for the device. A user name is not required.
Under Tools, click Change Administration Password. The Change Administration Password page appears, where you can change the administration password for the device. Enter the current password and new password in the spaces provided and click Save.
BACKING UP A CONFIGURATION
As part of system maintenance, you should save and back up the configurations of individual bridges in case you need to reload them in the future. The backup saves all the parameters of the selected bridge in a file on your computer. The file can be used later to restore the configuration on this or another bridge.
1Set the bridge parameters in the System Configuration pages.
2Under Tools, click Backup Wireless LAN
3In the next page, click Backup Now.
4Specify a name and location for the backup, and click OK.
