System Password
The gateway’s user interface and administrative functions can be protected with usernames
and passwords.
Two levels of authentication are supported – user and administrator. Users may view status.
Administrators may view status and logs and change settings.
Once a password is set, your web browser will prompt you for the authentication whenever
you try to access sensitive configuration pages. The browser will ask for a username and
password. The default username is “admin”. You may add other usernames and specify
both their password and authentication level. The admin username and password is also
used by Systech host utilities that manage the gateway.
A password must contain at least one numeric digit and one alpha character and be at least 7
characters in length. It may not contain any whitespace or control characters. A password
may not be longer than 15 characters. A password must be different than the previous four
passwords used for a given username.
Use the Reauthenticate button to request that the browser authenticate again.
