Password protection restricts unauthorized access to Omega
management. This is a very different type of password protection than
“
Download Password
” which is found within the
IP parameters
submenu and discussed later.
If you choose to use password protection, the management agent prompts for
the password when each new session begins.
NOTE
The default does not have a password.
You may enter a new password, up to 32 characters in length, or just press
<RETURN>
to keep the existing password if there is one. (The screen does not
display your password as you type it; a series of asterisks appears instead.)
To delete your current password, press the spacebar one or more times and
then press
<RETURN>
.
