Setting New Default Passwords

From the Cisco Unity Installation and Configuration Assistant, you run the Password Hardening wizard fifth to set new default passwords for the Default Administrator and the Default Subscriber templates.

When all of the following conditions are true, Cisco recommends that you specify an extremely long and complex password for the Active Directory password in the Default Subscriber template:

Subscribers will access messages only by using the phone.

Subscribers will not have access to the Cisco Personal Communications Assistant.

You will be creating Cisco Unity subscribers by using the Cisco Unity Administrator.

When a subscriber is created by using the Cisco Unity Administrator, an Active Directory account is automatically created for that subscriber, too. The password on the Active Directory account is the password in the Default Subscriber template.

Caution Anyone who knows the password for the Active Directory account, knows the alias for a subscriber, and knows on which Exchange server the voice messages for that subscriber are stored can access those messages.

To Set New Default Passwords

Step 1 On the Set New Default Passwords page, click Run the Password Hardening Wizard. Step 2 Follow the on-screen prompts.

When the Password Hardening wizard finishes, the Integrate the Phone System with Cisco Unity page appears in the main window.
