HID Mercury LP1501 User Manual

2.13 IT security
Ensure that the LP1501 is installed securely. Create user accounts to the web configuration page using secure
passwords.
Ensure all DIP switches are to be in the OFF position for the normal operating mode.
The LP1501 is shipped from the factory with a default login account, which is enabled when DIP 1 is moved
from OFF to ON (See 2.3 DIP switches). The default login user name (admin) and password (password) will
be available for five minutes once the DIP switch is toggled. It is therefore important that at least one user
account is defined, and the DIP switches are set to OFF before the LP1501 is commissioned.
Configuring the LP1501 with an IP address that is accessible from the public is not recommended.
The following options are available for enhanced network security:
n Disable SNMP.
n Zeroconf discovery.
n The web configuration module.
n Enable data encryption over the host communication port.
