Figure 5-5 — Passwords page
The fields on the Passwords page are for entering and verifying
administrator and user passwords. Passwords are case sensitive
and are limited to 12 uppercase and lowercase alphanumeric
characters. Each password must be entered twice; once in the
Password field and then again in the Re-enter Password field.
Characters in these fields are masked (•••••). If you do not
want to password protect an access level, leave the Password
field and the Re-Enter Password field blank. All changes made
on the Port Settings must be confirmed by clicking the Submit
button. Clicking the Cancel button abandons the changes.
An administrator password must be created before a user
password can be created.
To clear an existing password (so that no password is required),
enter a space in the Password and Re-enter Password fields and
click the Submit button.
When you have connected multiple MKPs to control a
switcher through a primary MKP control panel, do not
set a user password on the primary MKP.
