Appendix C
Passwords
Besides the Async PAD Login password (see page 13-9) there are several others:
●
The “root” password – specified during UNIX software installation, is used to
enter maintenance operations outside the FRX8000 software. Each INM and
NMP can have a different root password.
●
The login password – specified during UNIX software installation, protects the
NMP from unauthorized use. It must be entered each time a system operator
logs on. Each INM and NMP can have a different login password.
●
The database maintenance password – is used to gain access to configuration
database
Maintenance
or
Initialize File
operations (the high-level operations
password will also work).
This password is required only if database maintenance security is
enabled in a hidden menu used by system administrators.
This password is network wide. It can be changed, as described under
“Changing Passwords“on page C-2 .)
●
High- and low-level operations passwords - protect portions of the database and
certain network operations from unauthorized access. For example, you need an
operations password to perform maintenance operations outside the NMP menu
level.
●
These passwords are network wide. Either password can be used whenever an
operations password is required, except when performing

or

in Configuration Database operations or

operations, where only the high-level password will work. Both can be changed
using

●
The remote control password – allows the operator at an INM or NMP to take
control of a remote FRX8000. The operation can also be used to take control of
the local node attached to an NMP, for the purpose of accessing the local line
monitor.
