Object

column r/w 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.
