Login for First Time for Admin User

By default, the system predefined the administrator user named admin. When you login via the Web Client for the first time, you are required to create a password for the admin user before you can properly configure and operate the system.

1. In the address bar of the web browser, enter the address of the PC running SYS service and press Enter key.

   If the IP address of PC running SYS is 172.6.21.96, and you should enter http://172.6.21.96 or https://172.6.21.96 in the address bar.

   Note:

   • You should set the transfer protocol before accessing the SYS. For details, refer to Set Transfer Protocol.

   • You should set the SYS's IP address before accessing the SYS via WAN. For details, refer to Set WAN Access.

2. Enter a password and confirm the password for the admin user in the pop-up Create Password window, and click Next.
   Note:

   The password strength can be checked by the system and should meet the system requirements. The default minimum password strength should be Medium. For setting minimum password strength, refer to System Security Settings.

   CAUTION:

   The password strength of the device can be automatically checked. We highly recommend you change the password of your own choosing (using a minimum of 8 characters, including at least three kinds of following categories: upper case letters, lower case letters, numbers, and special characters) in order to increase the security of your product. And we recommend you change your password regularly, especially in the high security system, changing the password monthly or weekly can better protect your product.

   Proper configuration of all passwords and other security settings is the responsibility of the installer and/or end-user.

3. Select a method for password reset verification.

   • Email: Click Email > Next and set the email address for receiving the password reset verification code.

   • Security Question: Click Security Question > Next, select three different security questions from the drop-down lists, and enter your answers accordingly.

   Note:

   If you forget the password of your account, you can reset the password by verifying your email address or answering the security questions. Refer to Forgot Password for details.

4. Click OK.

   The home page of the Web Client will show if the admin password is created successfully.
