Changing the default login password

Zixi includes the default passwords for the “Admin”, “Operator”, “User” and observer roles:

• Admin – can perform all actions.
• Operator – Can perform read/write on all streams but cannot modify the configurations in the Settings screens.
• User – can only perform read actions on streams and can switch between existing streams.
• Observer – can perform only read actions on the streams.

Every organization has its own password policy, but generally, a strong password should include the following:

• Consist of at least six characters.
• Combine letters, numbers and symbols (@, #, $, %, etc.)
• Contains letters in both uppercase and lowercase

To change the default passwords in Zixi Broadcaster:

1. Go to Settings > General.
2. In the Admin Password field, type a new strong password.
