Establishing Access Security on a Port
Although the password feature is available, it is not required as a factory default. If
used, it ensures access security before device control is passed to a device
connected to a port. The password configuration option can be indivi dually set for
the COM or MODEM port, or both if security is needed on both por t types. The
default is None. The password itself is set separately (refer to the following
section,

Setting a Password

on page 5-3).
