• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists of different
types of characters, such as numbers and letters.
• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier
working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you
forget your password, you will have to reset the P-79X to its factory default settings. If you
backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the P-79X. You
could simply restore your last configuration.
