Password protection

The system can be password protected in three ways:

The Advanced menu can be password protected with a menu password.

The Codec can be password protected with an administrator password.

The Web interface is password protected with the same administrator password as for the codec. NOTE! Requires a reboot of the codec.

NOTE! When a new password has been defined make sure you save a copy of the password in a safe place. Contact your TANDBERG representative if you have forgotten the password.

Setting the codec administrator password

To define the administrator password on the codec:

1.Connect to the codec through the network or the serial data port, using a command line interface (ssh, telnet or scp)

2.Log in to the codec with user name (admin) and no password.

3.Run the following API command and enter a password: xCommand SystemUnit AdminPassword Set Password: “****”

4.The password format is a string with 0–255 characters.

5.Reboot the codec.

Password protection of the web interface

The web interface is password protected with the same user name and password as defined for the codec.

NOTE! To activate the administrator password on the web interface, after having defined or changed the administrator password, a reboot of the codec is required. Without a reboot the administrator password will only apply when you log in to the codec.
