Procedure
- On the Passwords screen, enter new passwords for all logins. You must enter each password twice to ensure that you are not making any mistakes in typing.
If you do not enter new passwords, the defaults are used. The following table shows the default password for each login.
Login Default password Capability root root01 Advanced administrator admin admin01 Advanced administrator cust cust01 Normal administrator manager (for ldap) root01 Administrator for the System Platform local Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory. System Platform uses a local LDAP directory to store login and password details. Use this login and password to log in to the local LDAP directory. This login does not have permissions to access the System Platform Web Console.
Important Enter new passwords instead of using the default passwords. Exercising best practice for password security, make careful note of the passwords that you set for all logins. Customers are responsible for managing their passwords.
For best password security exceeding minimum requirements, passwords for all users including root, conform to all of the following content and usage rules. That is, Passwords:Contain a minimum of 8 characters.
Contain one or more lowercase characters.
Contain one or more uppercase characters.
Contain one or more digits.
Contain one or more special characters.
Must not be identical to any of the last 10 passwords.
Must not be similar to the prior password. Passwords are similar when they share a sufficiently long common substring, where removal of that substring results in a weak new password.
Must be changed within 90 days. At the end of this authorization interval, every user must change their password upon login to the Cdom (or Web Console) domain.
Note The Avaya Services craft login uses Access Security Gateway (ASG) for authentication. If you are using the craft login, you must have an ASG tool to generate a response for the challenge that is generated by the login page. Many ASG tools are available such as Avaya Token Mobile, Avaya Web Mobile, and Site Manager. The first two ASG tools must be able to reach the ASG manager servers behind the Avaya firewall. The Avaya Services representative uses Site Manager to pull the keys specific to a site before visiting that site. At the site, the Avaya Services representative uses those keys to generate a response for the challenge generated by the Logon page.
- Select OK and press Enter to accept the passwords and continue the installation.
Result
The installation takes approximately 5 minutes. During this time, you can see the Image Installation page with progress bars, followed by the Running page, as the system completes the post-install scripts. After the installation is completed, the system ejects the DVD and reboots the server. If you are installing from server console, the system displays the Linux login page for System Domain (Domain-0) after the reboot.
Important If the DVD does not eject automatically, eject it manually. The system restarts the installation if the DVD is not ejected.
CAUTIONDo not shut down or reboot the server during the first boot process of Console Domain. If you shutdown or reboot the server during the first boot of Console Domain, System Platform will not function correctly and will have to be reinstalled. To determine if Console Domain has booted, attempt to access the Web Console. See Accessing the System Platform Web Console.
Next Steps
Verify System Platform installation. See Verifying installation of System Platform.
