Forcing end user to change the password
Upon access to the web pages on the CPE side of the router, if the user has not changed the default
web password, a warning message must be displayed in the top banner of the web interface such as
being visible while accessing any tabs.
This warning message informs the user that the default password must be changed:
In the
second sentence, “here” is a hyperlink to the password setting page. Clicking on “here” lead to the
display of the password setting page.
More information
By default, the username is empty (“”) and the password is “admin”.
This is set by different actions (non exhaustive list):
- at the manufactory level,
- following a reset factory on the modem,
- following a reset from the operator,
- following a change by the user who wants to come back to the default setting after using its own
settings
When the current password is the default one, the user is strongly encouraged to change the default
web password:
- Once the user logs in the web pages, the password setting page is displayed
- the warning message must be displayed in the top banner of the web interface
- The user can still access to all the web pages even if the password is not changed
- The warning message must be displayed on the top banner of each accessed Web page while the
password is not changed
- The password warning message must be visible while accessing all tabs in a the same web page
