Enabling The Automatic Generation Of Passwords - Polycom realpresence 1800 Administrator's Manual

● If the flag values (i.e. the password lengths) are changed, passwords that were already assigned to
conferences, Reservations, and Meeting Rooms will not change and they can be activated using the
existing passwords. Only new conferencing entities will be affected by the change.
Do not enable this option in an environment that includes a Polycom DMA system.
