Changing user passwords

This section explains how to change or re-issue passwords for other users on Remote Web Console.

Prerequisites

Security administrators with View & Modify roles can change user passwords on Remote Web
Console.

If the target user has a local user account for Remote Web Console, the security administrator
can use Remote Web Console to change the target user’s password.

If the target user has a local user account for the authentication server, the security administrator
can use the authentication server to change the target user’s password. After the password is
changed, the target user can use the new password on both the authentication server and
Remote Web Console.
