2 You will notice the Old Password entry box is greyed out. This indictes that
password protection is currently not enabled on this gateway. Enter a
password in the New Password box and then retype the password in the Re-
Enter New Password box. The password can be any combination of four (4)
to twelve (12) letter and number (alphanumeric) characters. The password is
case sensitive, meaning:
o password1
o
PASSWORD1
o PaSsWoRd1
are three different passwords, not the same password typed three different
ways.
3 Click OK. You will see a download progress bar near the top of the download
dialog box. This indicates that password protection is being enabled on the
gateway. When you see the success dialog window appear, password
protection has been successfully enabled. You will now be required to enter
your password whenever you wish to download a configuration to the
gateway.
If the progress bar indicates the process has finished, but you do not see the
success window, then password protection is not properly enabled on the
gateway. This problem can usually be solved by upgrading the gateway
firmware, gateway operating system loader, and/or ProSoft Configuration
Builder to the latest versions that support password protection. For further
information, contact ProSoft Technology Technical Support (page 223).
