9 System Settings
This section describes settings that are applicable to the overall operation of the EL-500, but
are not related directly to a particular interface.
9.1 User Password
The password for the ‘admin’ user is configurable. The default password is ‘default’.
See section 2.4 for instructions on resetting the ‘admin’ password if it has been lost.
CLI
The password for the ‘admin’ user can be set using the ‘password.admin’ parameter in the
‘sys’ interface. The password will not be displayed when using the ‘get’ command with these
parameters. The example below shows how to set the ‘admin’ password using the CLI.
> use sys
sys> set password.admin=newpass
Web GUI
The ‘admin’ password can be changed via the web interface using the “Passwords” tab on the
“System Parameters” page.
