3.6 Changing the Login User Name and Password
To prevent unauthorized access to the Web interface, two Web user accounts (login
accounts) are available (primary and secondary) with assigned user name and password.
For detailed information on the Web user accounts, refer to the device's User’s Manual.
¾ To change the user name and password, take these 3 steps:
1. Open the 'Web User Accounts' page (Configuration tab > Security Settings menu >
Web User Accounts).
Figure 3-8: Web User Accounts Page (for Users with 'Security Administrator' Privileges)
2. To change the user name, perform the following:
a. In the 'User Name' field, enter the new user name (maximum of 19 case-sensitive
characters).
b. Click Change User Name; the new user name is applied and the 'Enter Network
Password' screen appears.
c. In the 'Enter Network Password' screen, enter the new user name.
3. To change the password, perform the following:
a. In the 'Current Password' field, enter the current password (maximum of 19 case-
sensitive characters).
b. In the 'New Password' and 'Confirm New Password' fields, enter the new
password.
c. Click Change Password; the new password is applied and the 'Enter Network
Password' screen appears. In the 'Enter Network Password' screen, enter the
new password.
Tip:
Record and retain the new user name or password. If the Web interface is
unavailable (e.g., if you’ve lost your user name and password), use the
BootP/TFTP utility to access the device, ‘reflash’ the load and reset the
password (refer to the Product Reference Manual).
