Table 8 Steps to Changing Your Password
Feature
Password — Change
If your system uses NBX
Messaging — Follow the NBX
voice prompts to change your NBX
password and NBX NetSet
password. They are the same.
NBX Messaging users can also use
the Feature Code method, next, to
change passwords.
If your system uses a
messaging application other
than NBX Messaging — Use this
code sequence to change your
password for the NBX NetSet
utility.
3Com recommends that you use
the same password for NBX NetSet
and your messaging application.

Change your password often.
■
Do not use passwords that can easily identify you, such as your phone
■
extension or birth date.
Avoid simple passwords such as 1234 or 0000.
■
Use numbers only; do not use * or # as part of your password.
■
Longer passwords are more secure.
■
Never tell your password to anyone.
■
Change your personal greeting often, to let callers know, for instance,
that you are on vacation, available at another number, or unavailable for
a specified amount of time.
You may also want to change the greeting to say that your extension is a
"greeting-only mailbox," so that callers do not attempt to leave
messages. See "Greeting-Only Mailbox"
