  • At least three characters from the following four categories:
    • Uppercase letters
    • Lowercase letters
    • Base 10 digits (0-9)
    • Non-alphanumeric characters (such as $, %, !)

Procedure

  1. Power on the appliance.
  2. Log on using the Admin username and default password that are printed on the appliance.
  3. Enter a new Admin password.
    You’re logged on as an Admin user.
    Note: Some models have only the Admin account by default.
  4. Log off, and then log on using the Operator username and default password that are printed on the appliance.
  5. Enter a new Operator password.
    You’re logged in as an Operator user.
