<user>
Used by MLPP administrators to change the password of the user who is currently logged in to the CDE/Maintenance port. To change passwords of other user levels, use the Reset Password command.
The command is entered from a CDE/Maintenance terminal connected to the RS-232 port on the 3300 ICP.
When Enhanced Login Security is enabled on the Security Options Assignment form in CDE (a requirement for MLPP), passwords must contain at least one special character, one number, and a mixture of upper and lower case letters and cannot contain repeating characters such as "aaa", or the username.
The valid characters for passwords are:
! " # $ % & ' ( ) * + 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 : ; < = > ? @ A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z [ \ ] ^ _ ' a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z { | }
For optimum system security, it is recommended that passwords be changed frequently at irregular intervals. Default passwords, including those assigned to the default user accounts (System, Installer, Maintenance2, and Maintenance1) must be changed to unique, secure values.
Once the Change Password command (or Reset Password command ) is used to overwrite the default password, it cannot be used again until the Password Expiry period has elapsed.
Passwords will become invalid if they are allowed to expire. Set the default expiry interval on the Security Options Assignment form, and the per-user expiry interval on the User Authorization Profile form.
