The Prestige 100L incorporates a number of security measures to prevent unauthorized access to your
network. For example, your Prestige supports both PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP
(Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) in authenticating a Remote Node.
In addition, your Prestige also implements a user password to get into the SMT screen. You have three
attempts to enter the correct system password. If all three attempts fail, the SMT logs out. In addition, your
Prestige only supports one user in the SMT at one time.
Configuring the SMT Password
The following steps describe a simple setup procedure for configuring the SMT password.
Step 1.
From the Main Menu, select option 23. System Password. This brings you to Menu 23 – System
Password.
Step 2.
From this menu, type in your previous system password and press the [Enter] key.
Step 3.
Type in your new system password and press the [Enter] key.
Step 4.
Re-type your new system password for confirmation purposes and press the [Enter] key.
You now need to enter in this password when you try to get into the SMT. In addition, this password is also
used when a network administrator attempts to telnet to your Prestige.
