Password Security
CAUTION
To the Administrator or Installer regarding the system password
1.
Please provide all system passwords to the customer.
2.
To avoid unauthorized access and possible abuse of the PBX, keep the passwords secret, and inform
the customer of the importance of the passwords, and the possible dangers if they become known to
others.
3.
The PBX has default passwords preset. For security, change these passwords the first time that you
program the PBX.
4.
Change the passwords periodically.
5.
It is strongly recommended that passwords of 10 numbers or characters be used for maximum
protection against unauthorized access. For a list of numbers and characters that can be used in system
passwords, refer to "1.1.2 Entering Characters" in the PC Programming Manual.
6.
If a system password is forgotten, it can be found by loading a backup of the system data into a PC,
and checking the password using the Maintenance Console software. If you do not have a backup of
the system data, you must reset the PBX to its factory defaults and reprogram it. Therefore, we strongly
recommend maintaining a backup of the system data. For more information on how to back up the
system data, refer to "2.5.1 Tool—SD memory backup" in the PC Programming Manual.
However, as system passwords can be extracted from backup copies of the system data file, do not
allow unauthorized access to these files.
