6 Configuring the Device
Once the connection has been established, the device must be configured. Configuration requires
extensive system knowledge and may be carried out only by authorized personnel.
6.1 Switching on the Power Supply
After the power supply has been switched on, the device executes the following functions:
▪ The operating system is booted.
▪ The applications are started.
▪ The connected slave terminals are connected to each other.
The start-up procedure lasts up to 30 seconds. When the RUN LED lights up, a SSH connection is
possible.
6.2 SSH connection and login
Establish an SSH connection via the factory-set IP address. After the connection is established, you can
log in.
First, you will be asked to enter the system password you received from your Interflex system consultant.
Then, the system prompts you to change the password.

You are required to change your password immediately (root enforced)
Changing password for root.

New password:
Retype new password:
root@iftc-8D:4E:56:~
6.2.1 Creating a password
The following criteria must be met to create a new password:
▪ The password has 8 digits and requires the following 3 security features:
▪ Uppercase letters
▪ Lowercase letters
▪ Digits
▪ If one of the security features is missing, the password is extended by 2 digits each. This means that
the password must have 8-12 digits, depending on the number of security features.
▪ The password must not contain any mutated vowels or special characters.
▪ The password must not contain any sequences (e.g. 111 or aaa).
▪ Furthermore, the system password or the previous password must not be used.
▪ If an incorrect entry is made four times in a row, a further entry is blocked for 25 seconds.
