Setting security job steps

  3. Enter the new platform username and password, confirm new password, select the This host will be licensed for FIPS 140–2 check box if this system is intended to be FIPS compliant, and click OK.
    The Set Station User Password window opens.
  4. Select the Use connection username check box if you intend to use the connection username. Enter the current station user password, new password, confirm new password, and click OK.
    The Set Platform User Password window opens.
  5. To change the password for an existing platform user, enter the current username, current password, new password, confirm password. Select the This host will be licensed for FIPS 140–2 check box if this system is intended to be FIPS compliant, and click OK.
  6. In the bottom Stations to include in the job, click (Add).
    The Add Device window opens.
