NOTE
RUGGEDCOM ROS requires that all user passwords meet strict guidelines to prevent the use of
weak passwords. When creating a new password, make sure it adheres to the following rules:
• Must not be less than 6 characters in length.
• Must not include the username or any 4 continuous alphanumeric characters found in
the username. For example, if the username is
Subnet25
, the password may not be
subnet25admin
or
subnetadmin
. However,
net25admin
or
Sub25admin
is permitted.
• Must have at least one alphabetic character and one number. Special characters are permitted.
• Must not have more than 3 continuously incrementing or decrementing numbers. For example,
Sub123
and
Sub19826
are permitted, but
Sub12345
is not.
An alarm will generate if a weak password is configured. The weak password alarm can be
disabled by the user. For more information about disabling alarms, refer to
