alphanumeric characters. When you type the characters, they appear as
asterisks on the password screen box.

After typing the password, press Enter.
3.
At the next prompt, re-type your password and press again to confirm
the new password. After the password entry, the screen automatically
reverts to the main screen.

screen displays a message confirming that the password has been disabled.
