Changing the password of a Spectrum Connect user

At any time, you can change the password of a Spectrum Connect local user account.

About this task

You can modify a user account only by changing its password. Periodic password change is recommended on a regular basis.

Note:

Spectrum Connect user names cannot be changed. Instead, you can delete a user account (see Deleting a user) and then create a new one (see Adding a new user).
This operation is available from the CLI as well, as explained in CLI – Managing Spectrum Connect users and groups.

Click Users and Groups in the Settings menu.
The Users and Groups dialog box is displayed, open to the Users list view. (See Figure 1.)
Click the Edit button on the row of the user account that you want to update.
The Change Password dialog box is displayed.

Enter the current password for the user account and then the new password as required.

Note: The minimum password length is seven characters and it must include at least one letter and one digit.
Click Apply.
The password for the selected user account is changed.
