Change Password
The system supports two management accounts, root and admin. The system manager is assigned with full
administrative privileges when logging in with the root account where the root manager can manage the system in
any respect. However, when the system manager logs in via the admin account, only basic maintenance can be
performed. Therefore, manager with different accounts will have different levels of privileges such as changing
passwords; root manager can change passwords for both root account and admin account, however, admin
manager can only maintain its own password. For more information on the respective privileges of these two
management accounts, please refer to Appendix B. System Manager Privileges.
