A password comes under two categories: "password" and "security". "Password" indicates a simple
password, which can be set only for level 15. "Security" means a security password, which can be set
for levels 0-15. If both types of passwords coexist in the system, no "password" type is allowed. If a
"password" type password is set for a level other than 15, the system gives an alert and the password
is automatically converted into a "security" password. If a "password" type password is set for level 15
and the same as a "security" password, an alert is given. The password must be encrypted, with
simple encryption for "password" type passwords and security encryption for "security" type
passwords.
