We strongly recommend that you secure your X-25 after the initial installation. At minimum you must change
your passwords to protect it against illicit use! The program sheets at the end of this document are designed to
help you through the programming process and give you a written record of the changes that you have made.

The next three parameters are the most important changes that you can make to secure your X-25.

System Passwords

Management --> Access Control --> Passwords

Change the default password for the three login accounts:

Login Account Names

Default Passwords

admin2583

admin + last 6 alphanumeric characters of the MAC Address

Support

support + last 6 alphanumeric characters of the MAC Address

user

user

The default password consists of the word “admin or support” plus the last 6 alphanumeric characters of the
system’s MAC Address, which can be found on the back of the X-25 system. For example, for the login ad-
min2583 password admincecde4, all lower case, or the login support password supportcecde4. New pass-
words can be up to 16 alphanumeric characters; we recommend at least 10, and must contain multiple upper
and lower case letters, numbers and punctuation. For example: !

wQMvxJfbg6!.

Telephone Passwords

Voice --> Phone --> Phone Extension

Change the default passwords for all 24 extensions, even if you do not have all of them in service. To ensure
that the passwords are truly random, you can use a website such as

www.random.org/passwords/

- which gen-

erates alphanumeric passwords form 8 to 24 characters in length. You will want to enter a unique password in
each of the 24 extensions even if you are not using all of them.

Hiding the X-25

Management --> Access Control --> Service Port

Change the Web Port from 80 to a number between 1 and 64,000. The number should be easy for you to re-
member such as 1492, 1620 because it will be used when accessing your X-25. For example: When access-
ing your X-25 you will enter http:// your_IPAddress:1492 or

http://192.168.10.1:1492

to login to your X-25.
