Using Your System Password to Secure Your System
NOTE:

password.

, you have the option to leave the
password security enabled or to disable password security.
To leave the password security enabled:

If an incorrect system password is entered, the system displays a message and
prompts you to re-enter your password. You have three attempts to enter the
correct password. After the third unsuccessful attempt, the system displays an
error message that the system has halted and must be shut down manually
using the power button.
Even after you shut down and restart the system, the error message continues
to be displayed until the correct password is entered.
NOTE:
You can use the Password Status option in conjunction with the System
Password and Setup Password options to protect your system from unauthorized
changes.
