Password Administration - Avaya Nortel Communication Server 1000 Manual

System administrators must ensure that users change the default password on
the IP Phone to control access, as the default password is the same on all IP
Phones when DFLT_SCPW is set to YES.
The new prompt DFLT_SCPW and the existing prompt Station Control
Password Length (SCPL) are prompted only if FFC package 139 is enabled.
The SCPL is also defined in LD 15 Flexible Feature Code (FFC)
configuration parameters and in Element Manager. If the SCPL length is
changed, the change takes effect only after a data dump and then a sysload
of the Call Server. The SCPL is changed to the new length during the
sysload. If the length is increased, then 0 is inserted at the beginning of the
SCPW to conform to the new length. If the password length is reduced, then
the leading digits are removed during the sysload.

Password administration

The Station Control Password (SCPW) controls access to the user private
Personal Directory, Callers List, and Redial List information.
When the IP Phone first registers to the system after it is created, by default
the password protection is turned off. If a default password is defined for the
user, the user can enable or disable password protection and change the
password. The changed password is updated on the Call Server and can be
viewed in LD 20. Other applications that use this password, such as Virtual
Office and Remote Call Forward, are affected by the password change.
Initial password
When an IP Phone first registers with the system, by default the password
protection is turned off. SCPW must be initially configured for each user. If
no SCPW has been defined, password protection for the IP Phone cannot be
enabled. The prompt DFLT_SCPW in LD 15 specifies that a default SCPW
is assigned to an IP Phone user when an IP Phone is added or changed in
LD 11. See
