What to Configure First on the AT-CV5M02 Management Card
This section has a few suggestions on what to configure on the
management card during the initial management session. The first
management session has to be a local session from the Console port on
the card. For instructions on how to start a local management session,
refer to “Starting a Local Management Session” on page 58.
Changing the
Manager and
Operator
Passwords
Since the default passwords for the manager and operator accounts on
the management card are included in this guide, you should change them
to protect the unit from unauthorized access.
To change the passwords:
1. From the Main Menu, select Configuration.
2. From the Configuration Menu, select System Configuration.
3. From the System Configuration Menu, select Omega Options to
display the Omega Options Menu
4. On the Omega Options Menu, select Manager Password to change
the Manager password or Operator Password to change the
Operator password.
5. Enter a new password of 0 to 16 alphanumeric characters. A password
is case-sensitive and can have the letters A to Z in uppercase and
lowercase, and the numbers 1 to 9. Do not use special characters,
such as spaces, asterisks (*), or exclamation points (!). To delete the
current password without assigning a new password, enter a space in
the password field. The default password for the manager account is
“friend” and the default password for the operator account is
“operator.”
For information on the other options in the Omega Options Menu, refer
to “Configuring Management Security” on page 90.
6. Return to the Main Menu.
