Telnet Access
—Telnet access is a powerful feature that allows
management of the radio via an Ethernet connection. This may be
done locally, using a cable connected to the management PC, or
could be performed at any distance using an IP/Ethernet network
connection. Telnet access is also possible over the air if the Ether-
net Bridging feature is enabled. Any user with the IP address of
the radio can log in to the unit with this method.
•
Disable Web Access
—Web access to the unit’s Device Manager is
normally enabled. Click this item to disable web access. A warn-
ing message appears to confirm disabling of web navigation.

Login Password
•
Administrator Password
—When the transceiver is shipped from the
factory, the password is normally set to the default entry of
admin
.
It is recommended that it be changed at the time of installation to
one that is known only to the Administrator or authorized user of
the system. The password should be changed periodically to
maintain the best security.
Passwords are case sensitive and may use up to 13 alpha-numeric
characters. Do not use punctuation mark characters. You will be
required to enter the current password to set a new one. Follow the
prompts, and refresh your web browser (typically
View>>Refresh
or
View>>Reload
at the top menu bar) to apply the change to all
pages.
