When changing an Admin account password, you must provide the current password. • An admin with ADlist 0-10 or LFlist 1-10 cannot change the password on an admin, user, or any role with an ADlist 11-25 or LFlist 11-128. The user account being changed must have an ADlist that is a subset of the account that is making the change. • A new password must have at least one character different from the old password. • You cannot change passwords using SNMP.
