ASR-2 Security

The standard Compaq password features function differently during ASR-2 than during a typical system startup. During ASR-2, the system does not prompt for the power-on password. This allows ASR-2 to restart the operating system or Compaq Utilities without user intervention.

To maintain system security, set the server to start in Network Server Mode (an option in the System Configuration Utility). This option ensures that the server keyboard is locked until you enter the keyboard password.

Select an administrator password (an option in the System Configuration Utility). During attended ASR-2 (local or remote), you must enter this administrator password before any modifications can be made to the server configuration.
