Where to set admin passphrase in AP9617 GUI

[DominikHoffmann]

I just updated the firmware of my AP9617 Network Management Card (NMC) to Version 3.9.3, the latest and last firmware—the product is obsolete.

I am trying to get apcupsd running on my router to communicate with the UPS via pcnet. With the new Version 3.9.3 GUI, where do I set the admin passphrase?

The only thing I can do here is update my password. No mention of a passphrase.

I don’t know, what it says about me, but half of the question I pose to user fora, I end up answering myself:

I was able to change the passphrase by connecting to the NMC via telnet. The menu sequence was this:

    3- System

        1- User Manager

            1- Administrator

                Provide admin password again.

                Skip entering new admin name.

                Skip entering new admin password.

                Enter new passphrase twice.

            4- Accept Changes

        Hit Escape until you hit the main menu.

    4- Logout
