Enable or disable Setup Password

You can use the password status option with the setup password option to protect the system password from unauthorized changes.

1. If Setup Password is set to Enabled, type the correct setup password before modifying the system setup options.

   If you do not type the correct password in three attempts, the system displays the following message:

   Invalid Password! Number of unsuccessful password attempts: <x> System Halted! Must power down.

   Even after you power off and restart the system, the error message is displayed until the correct password is typed.

2. If System Password is not set to Enabled and is not locked through the Password Status option, you can assign a system password. For more information, see the System Security screen section.

   You cannot disable or change an existing system password.
