Figure 19 Set Administrator Password
The default password for the administrator account is TANDBERG. This account has full access to
the Windows Server operating system: therefore assign it a strong, secure password.
5. Set the Server Time and Time Zone: go to Maintenance > Date/Time. Update the Time, Date,
and Time Zone settings and click the OK.
6. Configure the server name and Domain membership and click OK:
Go to Welcome > Set Server Name.
Figure 20 Set Server Name.
The default server name is tandberg-ms, but it can be renamed.
Joining the server to an Active Directory domain will simplify user administration by allowing all
users in Active Directory to use their existing Windows credentials to access Cisco TMS. Enter a
domain username and password authorized to join the server to the domain.
