Use a System Task to Normalize DMP Passwords

Do the management passwords on any of your DMPs differ from your norm for DMPs?

If so, you must edit these values to normalize them. Centralized management of DMPs is possible in DMM only when your DMPs all use one identical username (admin) and one identical password.

Procedure

Step 1 Choose Digital Media Players > Advanced Tasks > System Tasks, and then click the blank page icon to create a new system task.

The Create New System Task form opens.

Step 2 Enter a name and description for your new task.

Step 3 Choose Set from the Request Type list.

Step 4 Enter this command string in the Request text box.

init.WEB_password=

new_password

&mib.save=1&mng.reboot=1

Step 5 Click Submit to save the task and make it available to use.

Step 6 Send the password-changing instruction simultaneously to multiple DMPs in your network.

a.Choose Schedules > Play Now.

b.Choose a group from the DMP Groups object selector.

c.Check the check box for each DMP where the DMP Web Account password should change.
