Password task to change the default root account password. To use the Root Password task: 
1. Launch the Reboot task.
2. To continue, select one or more devices from the device selection window and click Edit.
3. Type in the Password field the new root password for all selected devices.
4. Type in the Verify password field the same password as you typed in the Password field. 
5. Click OK to save this new root account password to all selected devices. To close this task without 
saving any changes, click Close.
Serial Devices
Use the Serial Devices task to specify what serial devices are connected to any serial ports that have been 
added to a device. Serial ports can be added by installing or connecting a serial communications device 
(such as a modem) to a device, or by connecting a USB-to-Serial-Port adapter to a device or to a USB hub 
that is connected to a device.
To use the Serial Devices task: 
1. Launch the Serial Devices task. In addition to the IP address/hostname and status of each selected 
device, the Serial Devices task's device selection window also includes one task-specific 
information column: Serial Port Count, which displays the number of serial ports that are available 
for use on the device.
2. To continue, select a device from the device selection window and click Edit.
3. The Serial Devices Configuration window opens. As serial ports are detected on the device, entries 
corresponding to each serial port appear automatically in the Serial Devices Configuration window. 
Use the drop-boxes beside each detected serial port to specify the serial device that is connected to 
the serial port.
4. If desired, specify a label that will be used to uniquely identify the port to which each device is 
connected.
5. When you have finished specifying devices using this task, click OK to save your changes. Click 
Cancel to close this window without saving any changes.
Removing Serial Ports
If a previously detected serial port is not presently detected by the device (for example, if the USB-to-
serial port connector has been disconnected from the device), a Remove button will appear beside the 
port. Click Remove to remove the port configuration.
Note
The Serial Devices task can be run only on one device at a time.
