12: User Authentication
SLC™ 8000 Advanced Console Manager User Guide 257
the result: Admin Password Unique to Device: enabled (or disabled). If that string
is absent from the result or the result is set to “disabled”, it indicates that the device doesn’t
support the device-unique sysadmin password.
Note: It is recommended that you change the default passwords on initial setup. The
sysadmin password and the front panel (LCD) Factory Default password should be
recorded and stored in a secure place accessible by at least two authorized system
administrators. Recovering an SLC if both of these passwords are unknown is
cumbersome and time consuming. To change the sysadmin password, see the next topic,
Adding, Editing or Deleting a User.
To restore the SLC unit to factory defaults, see Firmware & Configurations on page 294.
