HTTPS port/HTTP port
By default, the HTTP server uses the well-known logical port number 80 for communication with
clients and the HTTPS port uses port number 443. You can specify different port numbers in the
range 1025 to 65535 if the default ports are blocked or used for other protocols on your
network.
Session timeout
If there is no activity on the management session for the specified time, then the administrator
will be automatically logged off. The default timeout is 5 minutes.
Administrator login configuration
The HP 501 supports one administrator login. Use this section to change the username and
password.
Username
The default username is admin. The username can be from 1 to 32 alphanumeric characters
including special characters.
Current password
The default password is admin.
New password and Confirm password
Specify a new password for the HP 501 administrator account.
The administrator password can be from 1 to 32 alphanumeric characters including special
characters. The password cannot begin or end with a space. For security purposes, HP
recommends that the password be at least 6 characters.
Notice
If you forget the administrator password, the only way to access the administrator account is to
