Passwords Page

The fields on the Passwords page are for entering and verifying administrator and user passwords. Passwords are case sensitive and are limited to 12 upper case and lower case alphanumeric characters. Each password must be entered twice: once in the Password field and then again in the Re-enter Password field. Characters in these fields are masked by asterisks (*****).

If you do not want to password protect an access level, leave the Password field and the Re-Enter password field blank. After entering the desired password in both fields, click the Submit button.

As shown in the figure below, password-protected connections allow two levels of protection: administrator and user. Administrators have full access to all DVS 304 switching capabilities and editing functions.

Please keep in mind that

Connecting via an Ethernet connection, entering SIS commands (see “SIS Communication and Control” chapter ) or using the control program to access the DVS 304 is password protected.

Connecting via the RS-232 port, entering SIS commands or using the control program to access the DVS 304 is not password protected.

NOTE: An administrator password must be created before a user password can be created.

To clear an existing password so that no password is required, delete the asterisks in the Password field and enter a single space in the field. Click the Submit button.
