NMS300 Network Management System Application
Change Your Password and Account Information
NETGEAR recommends that you change your password to a more secure password. This
recommendation applies to admin users only because nonadministrative users such as users
with a security profile set to Operator or Observer cannot change their password.
As an admin user, you can also change your account information. Items that you can change
include your email address, real name, and telephone number. You cannot change your user
name but you can add a second admin account with a different user name. For more
information, see the NMS300 Network Management System Application User Manual.

Change Your Password

When the application is initially installed, the default administrator user name is admin and
the default administrator password is admin. As an admin user, you can create user names
and passwords for other types of users.
To change your password:
1. Log in to the application.
For more information, see Log In to the Application on page 12.
2. .Select ADMIN > SETTINGS.
