Chapter 8. Account Management

User Passwords

The end-user has access to his or her own password only. This is the only end-user accessible administration command using the Web administration interface.

 Change User Password Page

This page is the only administration tool available to end-users. It allows users to independently change their own password without interaction from the administrator. As with all security measures of the password-based type, it is strongly recommended that users be advised to change their passwords on a regular basis and to use a nonsensical combination of letters and numbers. To change a password, the user must provide their Authentication ID (login name), their Old Password and their New Password.


Note: The user must enter the new password twice for verification, then click on the Change Password button to complete the change.
