Configuring Security Preferences; Changing The Administrator Password; Setting The User Password - LifeSize Passport User Manual

Configuring Security Preferences

You can set preferences in Administrator Preferences : Security to manage the
administrator and user passwords and control remote access to the system through the
web, telnet, SNMP and ssh. You can also enable H.235 AES security for calls.

Changing the Administrator Password

LifeSize recommends that you protect the administrator preferences with a secure password
to prevent occasional users from changing them. To change the administrator password,
follow these steps:
1. From the System Menu, access Administrator Preferences : Security : Passwords.
2. Enter a new password in the New Password field below Administrator Password and
press OK.
Note: If you did not change the administrator password during initial configuration, the
default password is 1 2 3 4.
3. Re-enter the new password in the Confirm Password field and press OK.
4. Select the Set New Password button and press OK.

Setting the User Password

You can set a user password to control access to User Preferences screens. By default, the
user password is not set.
Note: If you set a user password, you can also access the User Preferences screens with
the administrator password.
To set the user password, follow these steps:
1. From the System Menu, access Administrator Preferences : Security : Passwords.
2. Enter a new password in the New Password field below User Password and press
OK.
3. Re-enter the new password in the Confirm Password field and press OK.
4. Select the Set New Password button and press OK.
