Change Password
Use this menu to restrict management access based on a specific
password. Anyone can access the Status and Help menus, but you
must enter a password to access the configuration options provided
by the Setup and Tools menus. By default, there is no password, so
please assign a password to the Barricade as soon as possible,
and store it in a safe place.
Passwords can contain from 3–12 alphanumeric characters, and are
not case sensitive.
Note: If your password is lost, or you cannot gain access to the
management interface, press the Reset button on the front
panel (holding it down for at least five seconds) to restore
the factory defaults.
