Matrix PRASAR UCS - User Password

1186 Matrix PRASAR UCS System Manual
User Password
What’s this?
The User Password is a 4-digit code for extension users to protect their extension phones from unauthorized use.
The default User Password is 1111. It must be changed by the extension users from their phones to any desired
value, not exceeding 4 digits.
To avoid unauthorized access,
• the extension users must change the default password.
• make sure the new password is strong and is kept confidential.
• change the password regularly.
In case the extension user forgets the password, it can be cleared and restored to the default value 1111 by the
System Engineer (SE) or the System Administrator (SA). Refer the topic “System Security” for instructions.
The User Password is also required to access and use certain features of PRASAR UCS, which are listed below.
• Call Follow Me
• Dynamic Lock
• Direct Inward System Access (DISA)
• Walk-In Class of Service
• Presence
• Phone Settings of the Phone
• Mailbox of Voice Mail
The extension user must change the default password for all the above listed features except: Phone Settings,
Mailbox of Voice Mail. Both these features allow the extension user to use the default User Password, whereas in
the case of others, the system will not allow feature access without changing the User Password.
• The User Password for an extension can be changed only from that extension phone only.
• Since the Mailbox can be accessed using the default User Password, extension users who are
assigned a mailbox are recommended to change their User Password to prevent unauthorized access
to their mailbox.
