Passwords page

To access the Passwords page click on the Passwords link on the left side of any of the Configuration pages. The four fields on this page are for entering and verifying administrator and user passwords (see figure 6-6).

Figure 6-6 Passwords page

Passwords are case sensitive and are limited to 12 uppercase and lowercase 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.

NAn 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, enter a single space in the Password and Re-enter Password fields, and click Submit.

Email Alerts page

To access the the Email Alerts page click on the Email Alerts link on the left side of any of the Configuration pages. The Email Alerts page is used to set up the device to automatically send e-mail alert messages when settings are changed on the ISM 824. Up to 64 e-mail addresses can be addressed to alert recipients that any particular event has occurred. Each addressee can receive the same or different alerts for differing events.

SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) authorization can be specified as necessary for the ISM to accept incoming e-mail. This prevents spam from taking up space in the device’s e-mail system.
