The Manager displays the Configuration | Quick | Admin Password screen.
Figure 3-17 Configuration | Quick | Admin Password Screen
This screen lets you change the password for the admin administrator user. For ease of use during
startup, the default admin password supplied with the VPN Concentrator is also
admin.
Caution Since the admin user has full access to all management and administration functions on the device, we
strongly recommend you change this password to improve device security.
You can further configure all administrator users on the standard Administration | Access Rights |
Administrators Manager screen.
To change the password for the admin administrator user, follow these steps:
Step 1 In the Password field, enter a new password. For maximum security, the password should be at least 8
characters long, a mixture of upper- and lower-case alphabetic and numeric characters, and not easily
guessed; for example, W8j9Haq3. (The field shows only asterisks.)
Step 2 In the Verify field, re-enter the new password to verify it.
Step 3 Click Continue to proceed.
