following URL address in your Web browser:

Video Streamer is the host name or IP address of the CEN-NVS100.
Refer to the following sections for security configuration guidelines.
Setting a Root Password
The user name for the Administrator is permanently assigned as root. The default
root password is blank. Setting a root password is optional; however, doing so
prevents unauthorized use of the CEN-NVS100 by providing password protection.
It is recommended that the Administrator set a root password as a matter of prudent
security practice.
Set a root password in the Root Password pane of the “Security” configuration page.
“Security” Configuration Page – Root Password
1. In the Root Password pane, do the following:
NOTE: The password is case sensitive.
a. In the Root Password: text box, enter a new root password. The
password is displayed as solid black circles.
b. In the Confirm Root Password: text box, reenter the password. The
password is displayed as solid black circles.
2. Click Save.
A log-in window appears.
3. Enter root as the user name, and then enter the password you entered in
step 1.
NOTE: Once the root password is set, the password cannot be recovered.
The only option is to restore the password to the factory-default setting.
