Administrator and User Accounts
The Cisco IP Phone firmware provides specific administrator and user accounts. These accounts provide
specific login privileges. The administrator account name is admin; the user account name is user. These
account names cannot be changed.
The admin account gives the service provider or Value-added Reseller (VAR) configuration access to the
Cisco IP phone. The user account gives limited and configurable control to the device end user.
The user and admin accounts can be password protected independently. If the service provider sets an
administrator account password, you are prompted for it when you click Admin Login. If the password does
not yet exist, the screen refreshes and displays the administration parameters. No default passwords are assigned
to either the administrator or the user account. Only the administrator account can assign or change passwords.
The administrator account can view and modify all web profile parameters, including web parameters, that
are available to the user login. The Cisco IP Phone system administrator can further restrict the parameters
that a user account can view and modify through use of a provisioning profile.
Configuration parameters that are available to the user account are configurable on the Cisco IP Phone. User
access to the phone web user interface can be disabled.
Enable User Access to the Phone Interface Menus
Use the admin account to enable or disable access to the phone web user interface by the user account. If the
user account has access, users can set parameters through the phone web user interface.
