Password considerations
A password can be any combination of up to 16 (1 to 16) alphabetic and numeric
characters. For security reasons, it is recommended to use a strong password that
cannot be easily compromised. To set a strong password, use the following
guidelines:
v
Have at least eight characters in length and contain at least one alphabetic
character and one numeric character
v
Setup Utility program and hard disk drive passwords are not case sensitive
v
Not be your name or your user name
v
Not be a common word or a common name
v
Be significantly different from your previous password
Power-On Password
When a Power-On Password is set, the user is prompted to type a valid password
each time the computer is turned on. The computer cannot be used until a valid
password is typed in.
Administrator Password
Setting an Administrator Password deters unauthorized users from changing
configuration settings. If you are responsible for maintaining the settings of several
computers, you might want to set an Administrator Password.
After you set an Administrator Password, a password prompt is displayed each
time you try to access the Setup Utility program.
If both the Power-On Password and Administrator Password are set, you can type
either password. However, to change any configuration settings, you must use
your Administrator Password.
Setting, changing, and deleting a password
To set, change, or delete a password, do the following:
1.
Start the Setup Utility program. See “Starting the Setup Utility program” on
page 59.
2.
From the Setup Utility program main menu, select
Security
→
Set Power-On
Password
or
Set Administrator Password
.
3.
Follow the instructions displayed on the right side of the screen to set, change,
or delete the password you want.
Note:
A password can be any combination of up to 16 (1 to 16) alphabetic and
numeric characters. For more information, see “Password
considerations.”
