Security settings 

These settings can be used to secure the access to the 
Barix Exstreamer on several levels. The status is shown 
next to each password (set or not set). Access is free for 
levels without a password (default setting). 

Telnet / Serial configuration

Enter up to 7 characters to secure the access to the Telnet 
and Serial configuration. Without a valid password the 
network configuration cannot be changed. 
Enter 8 characters to erase the current password. 

Save configuration

Enter up to 24 characters to secure the saving of the 
device configuration (Clicking on Apply). Without a valid 
password the device configuration cannot be saved! 
Enter 25 characters to erase the current password.  

Save configuration password usage

When the password is set the user has to type in the 
password in the "Save Config Password field" before hitting 
the "Apply" button. 

Otherwise a warning will be displayed without saving the 
changes made. 

View configuration

Enter up to 24 characters to secure the viewing of the 
device configuration (Clicking on Config link). Without a 
valid password the device configuration cannot be viewed! 
Enter 25 characters to erase the current password.  

View configuration password usage

When the password is set the user clicking on the "Config" 
link has to type in the password in the password field of 
the pop up window (the user name does not matter). 

Only one user can log in at a time. Further connections will 
be refused while one user is logged in.  

To log out click on the "Logout" link next to the 
"SECURITY" tab in the menu bar.   

Please hit your browser’s Reload button if the "Logout" link 
is not visible while logged in. 
 

Control / Command

Enter up to 24 characters to secure the access to all 
control and command interfaces (WEB/CGI, Serial, TCP 
and UDP). Without a valid password the device cannot be 
controlled. Enter 25 characters to erase the current 
password. 

Note

This security option should be used very carefully and is 
intended for advanced users only. Since the CGI commands 
used in the web interface do not make use of passwords, 
setting this password would disable any control of the 
Barix Exstreamer using a browser. 

Level 4 to 6 (User)

Enter up to 24 characters to secure the access to 
customized web pages in 3 levels. Intended for advanced 
users only, for details see the Barix Exstreamer Gold 
Technical Documentation). Without a valid password these 
user web pages can not be viewed. 
Enter 25 characters to erase the current password.
