19 Maintenance - Speed Touch Password
Your AST570 is a highly advanced product, operating according
the many configurations set via the AST570 Web interface or via
the CLI.
In this way,
AST570 operation is vulnerable to misconfiguration
by other users.
Therefore, the
AST570 can be secured from such users by a
system password to restrict access to the Web interface or the CLI.
This chapter describes how to set such a system password.
Never use an obvious system password to protect the AST570 as
your name, birth date or phone number.
Moreover, you are advised to change the system password
regularly.
Forgetting the System Password
In case you forgot the system password you are no longer able to
access the web interface or the CLI and you will be no longer able
to (re)configure the AST570 settings.
Therefore, write your system password down and keep it on a
save place.
Otherwise, a
SwitchtoDefaults must be performed restoring all
original settings of the AST570 .
