6.2.4 Downloading the Software
OXO Connect is delivered either with:
• A final software including all the countries parameters (OXO Connect Small, Medium, Large
platforms delivered in BTCO mode) or
• A software tool (OXO Connect Compact platform and OXO Connect Small, Medium, Large
platforms delivered in stock mode).
This software tool is installed on the PowerCPU EE and must be updated with a further system
software package (including the specific country parameters) also called country software, so that
the installation is complete. The country software needs to be downloaded using OMC.
Caution:
The OXO Connect software package cannot be installed on a PowerCPU board, regardless of the tool
used: OMC and/or LOLA.
Important:
System Password management policy
Basic rules have to be applied to the different passwords allowing an OMC connection to the system. It is
recommended to change the default Installer password for OMC Expert, Administrator password for OMC
EasyPlus and Operator password for OMC Easy.
The following are the general recommendations for good password management:
• Implement company policy to regularly update all system passwords
• Regularly change the passwords
• Avoid the use of simple passwords such as 12345678, 11111111, 00000000 etc…
• Never choose a word from everyday language. Attackers can use special dictionary cracking software
to retrieve these
• Never choose a word that is closely related to you:
• your company name
• your name
• your wife’s maiden name
• the name of your children or your pet,
• your favourite hobby, etc…
• Choose a different password for each connection level
• Do not disclose passwords to other persons/colleagues
• Never write down your password. The first thing an attacker will do is rummage through your personal
belongings.
For more information about passwords, refer to the Password management section in the document
[13].
