Changing Your Name Announcement and Personal Greeting

Security Tips

Change your password often.

Do not use passwords that can easily identify you, such as your phone 
extension or birth date. 

Avoid simple passwords such as 1234 or 0000.

Use numbers only; do not use * or # as part of your password.

Longer passwords are more secure.

Never tell your password to anyone.

Changing Your 
Name 
Announcement and 
Personal Greeting

Change your personal greeting often, to let callers know, for instance, 
that you are on vacation, available at another number, or unavailable for 
a specified amount of time. 

You may also want to change the greeting to say that your extension is a 
“greeting-only mailbox,” so that callers do not attempt to leave 
messages. See 

“Greeting-Only Mailbox”

 later in this chapter.

Table 8   

Steps to Changing Your Password

Business Phone

Basic Phone

Analog Phone

Password — Change

If your system uses NBX 
Messaging 

— Follow the NBX 

voice prompts to change your NBX 
password and NBX NetSet 
password. They are the same. 

NBX Messaging users can also use 
the Feature Code method, next, to 
change passwords.

If your system uses a 
messaging application other 
than NBX Messaging 

— Use this 

code sequence to change your 
password for the NBX NetSet 
utility. 

3Com recommends that you use 
the same password for NBX NetSet 
and your messaging application.
