Password for the Access via COMfortel DECT IP1040
User name IKON
The user name along with the associated password is needed for authentification of a COMfortel DECT IP1040 on the PBX so that it has (only read) access to the contact data. The access with other passwords (e. g. the admin password) is not recommended, as the password is sent unencrypted by the COMfortel DECT IP1040. The access must be configured in the Configuration Manager of the COMfortel DECT IP1040 ( Network/PBX > More servers under Telephone book).
Password
Freely selectable password that consists of 8 characters containing digits, letters (upper and lower case, but no German umlauts and ß).
Notices:To change current PINs and passwords, click on Edit PIN and password.
A coloured bar under the entry field shows the security level of the password (red = low level, green = high level).
Passwords with a low security level cannot be saved.
Caution:A high level does not automatically indicate a secure password. This can also be achieved by name and date of birth in connection with special characters. However, names and dates of birth should not be used for passwords.
•To create a secure password you can consult, for example, the guidelines of the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI, in German).
Visible PINs and passwords are a security risk.
•After entering, select Hide PIN and password.
