CONFIG Commands

set system password { admin | user }

Specifies the administrator or user password for a Netopia Gateway. When you enter the

set system password

command, you are prompted to enter the old password (if

any) and new password. You are prompted to repeat the new password to verify that you
entered it correctly the first time. To prevent anyone from obser ving the password you
enter, characters in the old and new passwords are not displayed as you type them. For
security, you cannot use the “step” method to set the system password.

A password can be as many as 8 characters. Passwords are case-sensitive.

Passwords go into effect immediately. You do not have to restar t the Netopia Gateway for
the password to take effect. Assigning an administrator or user password to a Netopia
Gateway does not affect communications through the device.
