If this is your first time to log into the configuration program, then the default user names are “admin” and “guest,” and the passwords are null. The administrator has Read/Write access to all configuration parameters and statistics, while the guest has Read Only access. To open the Main Menu, type “admin” for the user name and press <Enter> for the password.
You should define a password, record it, and put it in a safe place. If you have not already done so, select Security Configuration and enter a password. Note that passwords can consist of up to 15 alphanumeric characters and are not case sensitive.
Configuration parameters are described in the following section.
Note: Based on the default configuration, a user is allowed three attempts to enter the correct password; on the third failed attempt the current connection is terminated.
