Chapter 8: Securing your XT Series
You can secure access to the basic and advanced settings of your Avaya Scopia
®
XT Series by
setting a PIN code to access these sections of the endpoint interface. You can also secure web
logins and limit remote upgrades to the system if required. For information on 802.1x network
authentication and 802.1q VLAN tagging, see Configuring Advanced Network Connectivity on
page 118. You can also secure the connection between video network devices and the XT Series by
configuring the network’s components to communicate via the Transport Layer Security (TLS)
protocol, and enabling encryption.

Setting PIN Codes for the XT Series
About this task
There are two PIN codes which you can configure to restrict access to your XT Series menus. The
administrator PIN is enabled by default (1234) to protect your system's advanced settings from
being changed by users, such as defining a camera or network settings. We recommend that you
change the administrator PIN when starting the system configuration to prevent users from changing
settings by mistake. To modify the web username and password XT Series, see
Securing Web
Access to the XT Series on page 157.
The PIN for basic settings is disabled by default. You can enable it to require users to enter the PIN
for all basic settings, such as changing the interface language. The default value for this PIN is
1234.
Before you begin
If configuring from the endpoint, you must first enable advanced configuration, as described in
Enabling Advanced Maintenance on the XT Series on page 112.
To modify the PIN from the web interface, you must be connected via HTTPS (see
Securing Web
Access to the XT Series on page 157).
