When you log into the phone web interface for the first time, you must change the password. Subsequently, anytime after the initial log in, you can change the password. The new password must comply with the following new rules:
-
The length of the password must be between 8 to 31 characters.
-
The password must have at least one numeral, one alphabet, and one special character.
-
The password must have a maximum of four consecutive characters from the same character class.
-
The password must have a maximum of two consecutive identical characters.
The allowed character class is numeric, upper case alphabet, lower case alphabet, and special character.
The allowed special characters are tilde (~), exclamation mark (!), at (@), pound (#), dollar ($), percent (%), carat (^), ampersand (&), asterisk (*), underscore(_), minus (-), plus (+), equal (=), back quote (`), pipe (|), back slash (\), parenthesis (()), braces ({}), brackets ([]), colon (:), semicolon (;), quote (“), single quote ('), lesser than (<), greater than (>), comma (,), period (.), question mark (?), forward slash (/).
Note:
The new web admin password rule applies for the phone software version 4.0.5 and later. You can continue using your old password until you reset it. When you upgrade the phone to a software version 4.0.5 or later, your old password remains valid until you reset it with a new password that complies with the new rules.
