1.3 Good Habits for Managing the MES-2110

Do the following things regularly to make the MES-2110 more secure and to
manage the MES-2110 more effectively.

• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists

of different types of characters, such as numbers and letters.

• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it).

Restoring an earlier working configuration may be useful if the device becomes

unstable or even crashes. If you forget your password, you will have to reset the

MES-2110 to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier

configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the MES-2110. You

could simply restore your last configuration.
