Understand URI Encoding Syntax
When you enter the text string in Cisco Digital Signs to change a DMP password, that string must use
the correct syntax for URI encoding.
• You must enter a plus sign (+) instead of a space wherever the value for a queryable object should
contain a space. For example, if the queryable object is “user” and its value is “John Smith,” you
would enter “user=John+Smith” in your string.
• Do any values in the string contain an actual plus sign? If so, you must encode the plus sign
explicitly as %2B.
• Exclamation points (!), question marks (?), ampersands (&), and asterisks (*) are forbidden
in values.
Tip Would you like to learn more about URI encoding and syntax? If so, see RFC 1630 at http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1630.
Procedures (Security)
• Edit the Splash Screen Duration to Obscure the DMP IP Address, page 43
• Protect Your DMP from Unauthorized Management, page 44
• Manage Passwords, page 45
Edit the Splash Screen Duration to Obscure the DMP IP Address
Timesaver Complete this optional procedure at your discretion.
You can change how long your DMP shows its splash screen during startup. This is useful when, for
example, your organization prefers not to reveal an IP address casually to all observers.
• A duration of 30,000 milliseconds (30 seconds) is the factory default.
• A duration of 1 millisecond turns off the splash screen.
• Any duration in the range from 2 to 5,000 milliseconds (5 seconds) does not have any effect.
Before You Begin
• Log in to DMPDM.
