3 Working with the Guest Management Software

When enabled: An operator or administrator can both define and change guest account passwords.

Allow guest account passwords to be reprinted

Controls the printing of guest account passwords.

When disabled: Vouchers that display guest account passwords can only be printed once. After that the password values are represented by a string of asterisks.

When enabled: Vouchers that display guest account passwords can be printed as many times as required. Each time a voucher with the password included is printed, an entry is added to the event log.

Allow guest account passwords to be exported to the clipboard

Controls the export of guest account passwords.

When disabled: guest account passwords cannot be exported.

When enabled: guest account passwords can be exported along with the rest of the guest information to the clipboard. See “Account list operations” on page 19.

Activate idle timeout for guest accounts

When enabled, the Guest Management Software uses the specified value when accounts are added to the controller. When disabled, the Guest Management Software uses the value 0.

On the controller, idle timeout controls how long a guest session can be inactive before the guest’s session is terminated. Setting the idle timeout to 0 disables this option. This means that the guest is not disconnected, regardless of how long their connection remains idle while logged in to the service.

Select the security level for automatically generated usernames and passwords

Specifies the security level that will be used when the Guest Management Software generates a username and password.

Weak security: Usernames and passwords are generated using six characters in the range [a - z].

Strong security: Usernames and passwords are generated using 8 to12 characters in the range [0-9, a-z, A-Z]. Word formation is prevented.
