Procedure 42 Configuring The Administrative Ip Phone Installer Password - Avaya Nortel Communication Server 1000 Manual

The administrator can create a temporary IP Phone Installer Password for
experienced users who are delegated to install IP Phones. If a null administrator
password is set and a temporary password is created, the temporary password
overrides the null administrator password.
To suppress all password prompting to reconfigure the Node ID and TN,
clear the temporary password using the nodeTempPwdClear command.
Also, configure the administrative password to a null password using the
nodePwdSet command with no "password" parameter specified.
For further information about commands, see Software Input Output
Reference—Maintenance (NN43001-711).
Configure the IP Phone Installer Passwords
The IP Phone Installer Passwords are configured on one Voice Gateway
Media Card or on the Signaling Server in the node. The passwords are
then applied to all cards in the node.
If the IP Phone Installer Password is configured on the Signaling Server,
or on the Voice Gateway Media Card with which, for example, an IP Phone
2004 is registered, the IP Phone's Telephone Options > Diagnostics
submenu is locked and the Set Info submenu does not display the Set IP
Information or Ethernet Information options.
