IP Line CLI commands for password control
The IP Phone Installer Passwords are configured on any Voice Gateway
Media Card in the node. The IP Phone Installer Password is configured and
administered using a set of six IPL> CLI commands:
• nodePwdSet “password”
• nodePwdShow
• nodePwdTempPwdSet “temppwd”, uses, <time>
• nodeTempPwdClear
• nodePwdEnable
• nodePwdDisable
The commands begin with “node” as they work at the node level. For detailed
information about these commands, see Table 94: “IP Phone Installer
Password commands” on page 723.
When an IP Telephony node is first installed, the IP Phone Installer Password
is not defined or enabled by default. To prevent users from inadvertently
re-configuring the Node ID and TN on their IP Phones, enable the IP Phone
Installer Password after the IP Phone is initially installed and the system is in
service.
Password security controls access to an IP Phone's TN for the purpose of
registering to a different virtual line TN on the Call Server after the IP Phones
have been installed. A password is not encrypted by the IP Phone or the Voice
Gateway Media Card.
By default, when a node is initially installed, the administrative password and
the temporary password are not defined, and the password feature is disabled.
