Password dialog, which appears when the product is accessed for the rst time.

certicate. HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over SSL) is a protocol used to encrypt trafc between web browsers and servers. The
HTTPS certicate ensures encrypted exchange of information. See HTTPS on page 41.

reset to the factory default settings. See Reset to Factory Default Settings on page 47.
To set the password via a standard HTTP connection, enter it directly in the dialog.
