Change Password
During authentication, the browser asks for user name and password. The user name field will 
accept any value, but you must type the correct password or the login will fail. The Change 
Password page lets the administrator change the password. 
NOTE: The password dialog box displays bullets or asterisks while you type information. If a secure connection 
is not used, the browser sends the unencrypted password to the Web server during this configuration process. 
Credentials are always encrypted during subsequent logons. 
To change the password:
1.
Type the old login password.
2.
Type the new login password. The length of the password must be between 0 and 31 
characters. The password may contain any combination of letters, digits, and 
printable characters.
NOTE: When you are typing a password, the case is significant.
3.
Type the new login password again. Both password parameters must match.
4.
Click Apply.
