ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORDS

An administrator can change the administrator passwords on the phone using the configuration
files only.
An administrator can also assign a password for using the Options key on the IP phone. You
turn this feature on and off by entering the "options password enabled" parameter followed
by a valid value in the configuration files. Valid values are 0 (false; Options key not password
protected), or 1 (true; Options key password protected). If this parameter is set to 1, a user has
to enter a password at the IP phone UI. If the password is entered correctly, the user is allowed
to gain access to the Options Menu and no more password prompts display for other password
protected screens. If the user fails to enter the correct password in three attempts, access to
the Options Menu is denied and the IP phone returns to the idle screen.
