NOTE
ROS requires that all user passwords meet strict guidelines to prevent the use of weak passwords.
When creating a new password, make sure it adheres to the following rules:
• Must not be less than 6 characters in length.
• Must not include the username or any 4 continuous alphanumeric characters found in the
username. For example, if the username is Subnet25, the password may not be subnet25admin
or subnetadmin. However, net25admin or Sub25admin is permitted.
• Must have at least one alphabetic character and one number. Special characters are permitted.
• Must not have more than 3 continuously incrementing or decrementing numbers. For example,
Sub123 and Sub19826 are permitted, but Sub12345 is not.
An alarm will generate if a weak password is configured. The weak password alarm can be
disabled by the user. For more information about disabling alarms, refer to Section 4.4, “Managing
Alarms”.
