Passwords?
Whenever you manage the Webcache using the Web interface or
Command Line Interface, you need to log in with the admin username
and password, as described in “Logging in as a Default User” on
page 58.
CAUTION: To prevent unauthorized access and configuration of the
Webcache, 3Com recommends that you set a password for the admin
username as soon as possible.
Setting Passwords To set the password using the Web interface, you need to login as the
admin user and select Security -> Set Password in the Navigation Tree
to access the Password Configuration screen. Then follow the steps
below.
You are prompted to set a password for the admin user account during
the Getting Started wizard, which automatically runs when you first
access the Webcache’s Web interface.
