Both the administrator and the user password can be a maximum of 15 characters in length. Note that you must enter a password within 10 seconds following the display of the Password: prompt, or the terminal will display “Timeout.” If this happens, press [CTRL] [R] to redisplay the SET DEVICE PASSWORD command. The new passwords you set go into effect immediately, but you must issue the SAVE DEVICE (or SAVE ALL) command to save the new passwords.
Establishing the Administrator Password
Use the following command to establish the administrator password.
ONline> set device password | administrator | [ENTER] |
|
Enter current administrator | password: {old password} | [ENTER] | |
New password: | {new password} | [ENTER] | |
Verify: | {new password} | [ENTER] | |
Note: For security purposes, the values you enter in the password fields are not displayed on the screen.
You do not need to use the new administrator password until the next time you log in to the EMM.
As EMM administrator, you can configure the following:
❑Device - This includes naming the EMM, establishing passwords, setting mastership priority, setting SNMP Values, as well as providing location and contact information.
❑Modules - The EMM can assign each module in the ONline System Concentrator to one of the available networks or isolate it (not connect that module to any network). Reconfiguration of network assignments can be done at any time, without removing a module from the concentrator or disrupting other configuration settings. If a module is removed from the concentrator slot and replaced with the same module type in the same slot, the new module will be configured to the settings of the previous module installed in that slot.
