Chapter 4. Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program

Using Security Profile by Device, you can also control which devices require a
password before they start up. There are two classes of devices:
• Removable media drives, such as diskette drives, CD-ROM, and DVD-ROM
drives
• Hard disk drives
You can set these devices to request a user password, an administrator password,
or to not require a password. This way, if you have a power-on or administrator
password set for your computer, you can configure your computer to prompt you
for a password only when certain devices are accessed at startup. For example, if
you set Hard Disk Devices to require a user password, each time you attempt to
start up from the hard disk, you will be prompted to type the password before the
startup proceeds.
Some operating systems require you to type a password before the operating
system will start. Security Profile by Device does not change the way the
operating system works. If an operating system password is required, you must
type it when prompted, regardless of the Security Profile by Device settings.
To set Security Profile by Device, do the following:
1. Start the Configuration/Setup Utility program (see “Starting and using the
Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 31).
2. From the Configuration/Setup Utility program menu, select System
Security
and press Enter.
3. Select Security Profile by Device and press Enter.
4. Select the desired devices and settings and press Enter.
5. Press Esc twice to return to the Configuration/Setup Utility program menu.
6. Select Save Settings from the Configuration/Setup Utility menu and press
Enter. Then press Esc and follow the instructions on the screen to exit from
the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
