System Administration

Setup AirBEAM Software Access

Symbol’s AirBEAM software suite is a comprehensive set of mobility management tools that maximize the availability, security and effectiveness of a wireless network. The fields in this section of the screen allow the administrator to enable access from the AirBEAM software suite and to set the AirBEAM password.

1.To enable AirBEAM access, check the Enable AirBEAM checkbox.

2.Specify a password for AirBEAM software access. Note that the AirBEAM login name is always “airbeam”.

3.Click the Apply button to save changes.

Changing the Administrator and Manager Passwords

In the lower half of the WS 2000 Access screen, two buttons open sub-screens that allow the administrator to change either the switch administrator’s or switch manager’s passwords. For reasons of security, the administrator should change both passwords to something other than the default, before the system becomes operational.

Select Change Admin Password to open the screen to change the switch administrator’s password. Type in the current administrator password and the new password twice.

Select Change Manager Password to open the screen to change the manager’s password. Type in the current administrator password and the new manager passwords twice.

Note: If the administrator does not remember the current password, the administrator can contact Symbol Technical Support for directions on how to proceed.
