The "Username" and "Password" are very important information both in the "Command Line Interface"
or "Web Console". Users have to login into the system before doing any configuration. We strongly
suggest the users to change at least the password for security when they are going to use this device.
We also provide authentication with RADIUS/TACACS+ server from software version 1.0.3. Users can
maintain the login information in their own RADIUS/TACACS+ database and allow several
usernames/passwords to login the system.
