Provisioning of LifeSize Passwords
Take note of the following when provisioning passwords to LifeSize
endpoints:
• The Auto password must be provisioned to meet the LifeSize and
SSH/telnet rules for passwords.
• You cannot provision the Auto password to be blank. If you attempt to
provision a blank value, the existing value of the password will not be
overwritten. It will remain valid.
• The Web UI or User password can be provisioned to include the numbers
0-9 and/or the symbols * and #. The system will silently truncate these
passwords to a maximum of 16 characters.
• You can provision the Web UI or User password to be blank.
