Log in to Device Administration
| ➢ | To log into Device Administration: |
| 1. | Navigate to the 'Settings' page (see Access User Settings). |
| 2. | Under ‘Device Admin Settings’, tap Device Administration, then tap Login. |
| 3. | Enter the password using the virtual keyboard, then tap OK. |
The virtual keyboard pops up for all ‘Settings’ fields to allow inputting characters and / or numbers. Two virtual keyboard types can be displayed: Numeric or QWERTY. To switch between these types, use the ?123 / ABC toggle key.
Upon successful login, the available device admin options appear under ‘Device Administration’ and can be set as required. If you log out or the admin login timeout has passed, the admin options disappear.
Upon initial login, you are required to change the default password (which is 1234).
Brute Force Protection for Admin Password
After 5 consecutive wrong login attempts, retry is blocked during a period of 1 minute. This period increases with the number of failed attempts to 5, 10, and 15 minutes.
Failed logins can be at the UI and SSH levels and are added up together for both. For example, 2 wrong passwords at the UI level and 1 wrong password for SSH access are counted as 3 attempts.
