OctetString
A protected PDL password for this device.
Usage: Conformant implementations MUST encrypt passwords, keys,
and other security information stored in this string object.
Usage: All XCMI conforming management agents: a) SHOULD always
return an encoded string in response to an SNMP GetRequest of
this object; b) SHALL NOT return the contents of this object in
cleartext (ie, unencrypted) in response to an SNMP GetRequest;
c) SHOULD support (ie, accept) an unencoded SNMP SetRequest
changing the system 'custom password' in this object.
Usage: Conforming management stations and management agents
SHOULD support authentication of SNMP SetRequests via values of
'xcmHrDevMgmt[User|Operator|Admin|Custom]Password' in
written cleartext in 'xcmHrDevMgmtCommandData'.
Usage: Conforming management stations MAY support client-side
authentication of user roles and rights via checking values of
'xcmHrDevMgmt[User|Operator|Admin|Custom]Password' presented in
client applications (eg, install tools). WARNING: Such
mechanisms do NOT protect managed systems from attack by other
authentication SNMP client applications that do NOT perform such
client-side authentication and are thus inherently weak.
