Set Common Passwords for Endpoints
The Common Password feature allows you to manage endpoints that have the
same global administrative password. However, it cannot reset the
administrative password on endpoints.
If you use the Common Password feature, access to password-protected data
within endpoints is granted if the specified common password matches the
endpoints’ Administrator Password.
To set common passwords for endpoints
1 Go to Admin > Management and Security Settings > Endpoint
Management Settings.
2 In the Common Password section of the Endpoint Management Settings
page, select Use a Common Password.
3 Enter the common User Name and the common password in the
Password and Verify Password fields and click Update.
Disable Common Password for Endpoints
To disable common passwords for endpoints
1 Go to Admin > Management and Security Settings > Endpoint
Management Settings.
2 In the Common Password section of the Endpoint Management Settings
page, clear Use a Common Password and click Update.
The common password feature is disabled. However, the values for the
common password feature are retained in the database, so it can be easily
re-enabled.
Note
Leave these settings blank if your Polycom endpoints require individual passwords
or do not have passwords. To configure a global administrative password for all
Polycom endpoints, use scheduled provisioning.
