NN46110-602
You use the Administrator Settings window to do the following:
• change the primary administrator user ID and password
• control the Administrator Idle Timeout Setting for all administrators
• control the default language
• control the serial port settings
There is only one primary administrator. The primary administrator user ID and
password combination do the following:
• provide the user with access to all windows and control settings
• allows access to the serial port and the recovery disk
You can change the primary administrator user ID and password on the Admin
>
Administrator window.
Lost user name and password—resetting the VPN Router to
factory defaults
You can set the VPN Router back to the factory default configuration even if you
do not know the administrator username and password. To do this:
1 Boot the VPN Router into recovery mode.
2 Open a browser to the management IP address of the VPN Router. You do not
need a user name and password for this step.
3 Reset to factory default. After you reset to factory default, the administrator
user name is admin and the password is setup.
Note: Once you set the primary administrator user ID and password,
you must implement an Admin > Shutdown to save the new settings.
Doing a reset (using the Reset button on the back of the VPN Router)
does not save the settings.
Caution: Resetting to factory default removes all existing configuration
information.
