Setting Up Security
The following sections describe the security features available and how to use them.
Setting Supervisor and User Passwords
The server has password protections that can be set to prevent unauthorized access
to the BIOS Setup utility. If a supervisor password is set, the server prompts you to
enter a password before accessing the BIOS Setup utility.
If "Password On Boot" is enabled, and both the supervisor and user passwords have
been set, enter either the supervisor or user password to use the server. The
following list provides more information about setting passwords.
•
Enable the password during boot.
•
Setting the supervisor password allows you to make changes to the boot
process.
•
Setting the user password allows a lower level user to access files.
NOTE:
A supervisor password must be set before setting a user
password. If the supervisor password is later deleted, the user
password is automatically removed.
