LG niagara4 MultiSITE Edge 10 User Manual page 36

If you are not changing the controller's IP address during commissioning, the credentials for your replacement
platform user are "remembered" in the current session. This can simplify platform reconnection to the controller after
it reboots from commissioning. This is useful in a "migration" scenario.
However, if changing the IP address in commissioning, you need to remember/re-enter the new credentials for a
platform user in order to reconnect. Always make careful note of any changed platform credentials, and guard them
closely—as they provide the highest security level access to any Niagara 4 platform.
Platform user rules and guidelines
When adding any N4 MS-E10 device platform admin user, the following rules apply:
User Name
•
User Name can be a maximum of 14 alphanumeric characters (a - z, A - Z, 0 - 9), where the first character must be alphabetic,
and following characters either alphanumeric or underscore ( _ ).
Password
•
A strong password is required (it must match in both password fields). Entry characters display only in asterisks (*). Password
must be a minimum of 10 characters including: at least one uppercase character, at least one lowercase character, and at least
one digit. An error popup reminds you if attempt to enter a password that does not meet minimum rules.
Note:
Some basic guidelines on strong passwords:
• Use both upper and lower case.
• Include numeric digits (a minimum of one). Include special characters.
• Don't use dictionary words. Don't use company name.
• Don't make the same as the user name.
• Don't use common numbers like telephone, address, birthday, and so on.
Comment
This is an optional alphanumeric field you can use when adding a new platform admin user, for description purposes only (note
you cannot edit it after adding a user, unlike with a user's password).
Note:
Make note of your platform user credentials, and guard them carefully! Consider the platform daemon as the highest-level
access to the MS-E10 device.
If you lose or forget these credentials, you may be unable to complete commissioning and startup of this controller. In this case,
you can restore the factory default platform user, providing you can serially connect to the controller (make serial shell
connection), and press a key at the prompted time during controller boot up following a power cycle.
Due to our policy of continuous product innovation, some specifications may change without notification.
