Entering a Password to Gain Access

You are prompted to enter a password (up to 8 characters) when you are
accessing a port whose Password configuration option is set (refer to the
previous section,

Setting a Password

).

Valid password characters are 0 –9, a–z, A–Z, #, -, ., and /. The existing
password is not shown on the screen. An underscore in the first position shows
where to enter the first character. If the password is set to all null characters
(default value), press F3 (Done) when the password screen first appears.

The following screen appears when you access a DSU/CSU that has a password
enabled.
