Security Configuration
Use the Security Configuration screen to restrict management access based on a specified password. The Administrator has write access for parameters governing the switch. You should therefore assign a password to the Administrator as soon as possible, and store it in a safe place. (If for some reason your password is lost, or you cannot gain access to the system’s configuration program, contact Alcatel Technical Support for assistance.)
Change Password
This password is for the system Administrator, with access privilege of Read/Write for all screens. Passwords can consist of up to 11 alphanumeric characters and are not case sensitive.
(User name: admin; default password: switch)
