4.2 Best Practices

Perform the following procedures regularly to make the EOA7530 more secure and manage the EOA7530 more effectively.

Change the default password. Use a password that is not easy to guess and that contains different characters, such as numbers and letters. The EOA7530 username cannot be changed. For more information, see page 58.

Back up the configuration and be sure you know how to restore it. Restoring an earlier working configuration can be useful if the EOA7530 becomes unstable or crashes. If you forget your password, you will have to reset the EOA7530 to its factory default settings and lose any customized override settings you configured. However, if you back up an earlier configuration, you will not have to completely reconfigure the EOA7530. You can simply restore your last configuration. For more information, see page 60.
