3.The PBX has default passwords preset. For security, change these passwords the first time that you programme the PBX.
4.Change the passwords periodically.
5.It is strongly recommended that passwords of 10 numbers or characters be used for maximum protection against unauthorised access. For a list of numbers and characters that can be used in system passwords, refer to Section 1.1.3 Entering Characters.
