1.4.2 Changing the default password
When you log in to JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 for the first time by using the built-in account or a newly created account, you are required to change the password. If an administrator who has user account management permissions has changed the user account password, you are required to change the password the next time you log in. Make sure to change the default password to enhance security. After the password is changed, you must use the new password from the next login.
- Tip
-
The password is valid for the number of days specified as the password expiration period in the Other Settings view during setup. Beginning seven days prior to expiration, you will be prompted to change the password when logging in. If you are prompted to do so, change the password. If the password expiration period has passed, the Change Password dialog box is displayed when you log in.
- Tip
-
If the password you specified is easy to guess, your user account might be used illegally. We recommend that you specify a strong password by following the password policies described below:
-
Use a combination of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols.
-
Do not use an obvious sequence of characters, such as 12345.
-
Do not use your name or birthday, the name or birthday of a friend or relative, or a word taken from a dictionary.
-
To change the password for the user account that is currently logged in, click the link of the user ID to the left of the Log Out button, and then change the password in the displayed dialog box.
An administrator who has user account management permissions can change the password for each user account in the Account Management view by selecting User Management in the Settings module and then Account Management.
