30 Avaya Video Conferencing Manager Deployment Guide
Specifying Default Passwords for Device Management
When Avaya Video Conferencing Manager attempts to manage devices, it uses the device
logon information that you specify for each make of supported third-party device in the
Password page.
Note: Avaya Video Conferencing Manager automatically uses the default command line
interface user (auto) and password (avaya) when attempting to manage Avaya
devices.
If you do not specify a valid user name and password for supported third-party devices, or if
the password that you specify has been changed on a device, the devices appear on the
Devices page with a Login failed icon in the Status column and you cannot manage
them until you update the password for each device.
Note: Updating a password for a device in Avaya Video Conferencing Manager changes
the password stored for that device in the Avaya Video Conferencing Manager
database. It does not change the password stored on the device. To change the
password stored on the device using Avaya Video Conferencing Manager, the
device must be managed in Avaya Video Conferencing Manager. When you use
Avaya Video Conferencing Manager to change a password on a managed device,
the password is automatically updated in the Avaya Video Conferencing Manager
database. For more information about updating or changing device passwords
using Avaya Video Conferencing Manager, refer to “Managing Device Passwords”
on page 58.
To enter default user names and passwords to use for discovering devices, follow these
steps:
1. Access Avaya Video Conferencing Manager.
2. In the navigation bar, click the Password icon.
3. In the Other Protocols section, select the make of the third party device for which you
wish to enter a user name and password. Refer to the documentation that accompanies
your third party devices for information about the device’s default user name and
password. Avaya Video Conferencing Manager supports only one user name and
password for each make of supported device as the default to use during device
discovery.
4. Click Add.
