Password protection
The system can be password protected in the following ways:
• The Advanced menu can be password protected with a menu
password.
• The Codec is password protected. You always need to enter
a username to log in.
The same username and password is used for the web and
command line interfaces.
You can also configure the codec to prompt for a PIN-code
before accessing all the on screen menus.
» The default username is admin with no password set.
NOTE: We recommend to set a password for the admin
user - see how to Change the codec password to the
right.
» New user accounts with username and password can be
created using the web interface.
Read more about how to create users with passwords and
PIN codes in the Administrator guide for your product.
• You can protect the File system of the codec by setting
a password for the root user. The root user is disabled by
default.
NOTE: When a new administrator password has been defined
make sure you keep a copy of the password in a safe place.
Contact your Cisco representative if you have forgotten the
password.
