2.Highlight “Set Administrator Password” and press <ENTER> to password protect administrator rights (Read/Write privileges). Enter the default administrator pass- word (“admin”) in the space provided. The system will then request a new password and verification.

3.Choose set “Normal User Password” and press <ENTER> to assign a password for Read privileges only. The system will ask only for the new password.

After assigning passwords, you must exit the System Configuration program (LOGOFF on the Main Menu) for the changes to take effect. If the user does not exit the program after setting new passwords, the interface will not be password protected.

It is recommended that you assign an administrator password as soon as possible to prevent unauthorized switch re-configura- tion. If a password is set and then forgotten, contact SMC Tech support to regain system access.
