DANTE LEADER CLOCK WITH GNSS SYNCHRONIZATION
Access Menu
As a security method a user name and password must be entered before the configuration webpages can be accessed.
(This is what you did to get this far!) These values can be changed as desired.
The Model 5402’s access security method is in no way rigorous. The user name and password are sent to and received
from the Model 5402 as plain text. They are also stored within the Model 5402 as plain text. There is no security method
or encryption associated with these fields. Anyone “snooping” on the LAN that is transporting Model 5402 management
data will see all values in plain text. The ability to select user name and password values is intended simply to provide
a means of keeping “honest” users from easily changing the configuration of a Model 5402. If unauthorized access is of
concern then it’s recommended that the Model 5402’s network configuration be selected for Switched or Redundant. And
then an Ethernet connection to the Model 5402’s management RJ45 jack should not be present except when access by
authorized personnel is desired.
The default user name is
guest
and the default password is
guest
. These are case sensitive. If neither of the default
entries are changed then they will display in the user name and password entry fields on the Login menu webpage. If the
default user name and/or default password is changed then neither the user name nor the password will display upon
accessing the Login menu webpage.
Management Log Credentials

In this field a revised user name can be en-
tered. The user name must be a minimum of five charac-
ters, a maximum of 15 characters, and is case sensitive.
All 95 of the printable ASCII characters can be used. These
include upper and lower alphabetic characters, numbers,
and standard punctuation marks.

In this field a revised password can be en-
tered. The password must be a minimum of five characters,
have a maximum of 15 characters, and is case sensitive.
All 95 of the printable ASCII characters can be used. These

Confirm New Password:
For a new password to be con-
sidered valid, enter it identically into this field.
Submit:
The Submit button is located below the field for
Confirm New Password. To save changes made to the User
Name and/or New Password fields requires that the Submit
button be pressed. Changes made will be effective upon
the next attempt at logging into the Model 5402. Restoring
the Model 5402 to its default values does not change the
stored user name and password.
