Change default user names and passwords immediately
As soon as you complete the installation and initial configuration of the
Automatic Transfer Switch, immediately change the default user names and
passwords. Configuring unique user names and passwords is essential to
establish basic security for your system.
Security Access Description
Available methods:
• User name and password
• Selectable server port
• Server Enable/Disable
• Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
and Transport Layer
Security (TLS)
In basic HTTP authentication mode, the user name and
password are transmitted base-64 encoded (with no
encryption).
SSL and TLS are available on Web browsers supported
for the Automatic Transfer Switch and on most Web
servers. The Web protocol Hypertext Transfer Protocol
over Secure Sockets Layer (HTTPS) encrypts and
decrypts page requests to the Web server and pages
returned by the Web server to the user.
Security Access Description
Available methods:
• Centralized authentication
of access rights
• A server secret shared
between the RADIUS
server and the Automatic
Transfer Switch
RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) is
an authentication, authorization, and accounting service
used to centrally administer remote access for each
Automatic Transfer Switch.
