Configuration

Admin Password

Admin Password Screen

Access to the  configuration web server is protected by HTTP Basic Authentication and may use a 
secure web server. This is a simple methodology where the Web Server will require a Web Browser to 
provide a username and password for each page requested. The Web Browser will typically ask the 
user to enter the username and password once, then will remember it for the duration that the Web 
Browser is running.  For some configurations,  use https: (instead of http: ) when addressing web 
browser screens.

The Administration screen allows you to change the user name and password for the administrator.  
This is the only user allowed to configure the unit.  

If you forget the administrator name or 

password, the hardware can only be configured by returning it to factory defaults as described in
Chapter 2.

Fields

User Name  
This field may be a string of 0 to 15 printable characters. Do not use space or control characters. If you
leave this field blank, you will need to enter a blank username during authentication.

Old Password 
In order to change the username and password, you must know the old password. When making a 
change, enter the current password in this field.

 New Password
When changing the username and password, this field provides the new password. It may be a string 
of 0 to 15 characters. If you leave this field blank, you will need to enter a blank password during 
authentication.

Verify New Password
Retype the password to verify that it was correctly entered.
