Setting a User Password

Setting a Boot Password

Users can start the system with a user password, but cannot enter the System Setup. By doing this, you can prevent other users from entering Setup.

Before configuring a user password, a supervisor password must have been configured. Deactivating the supervisor password also deactivates the user password.

In the Set User Password item, press <Enter> and complete the procedures from Step 3 of Setting a Supervisor Password.

Setting Up a Boot Password

To setup a boot password, the administrator password (Set Supervisor Password) should be set in advance.

Set the Password on boot item to Enabled.

Once a boot password is set, you have to enter a password to boot up the computer.
