Password policies

Last Updated : Apr 09, 2025 |

The root and ipcs passwords are set during product installation. The EMS GUI has a separate password.

The default user IDs and passwords are the following:

Username

Password

root

@V@Y@_123

ipcs

Avaya_123

ucsec (GUI only)

ucsec

Note:

After the factory reset, the golden password for the root user ID is Avaya_123.

Security alert:

You must change the default passwords for the CLI root and ipcs user IDs after the first boot during the installation procedure. When prompted, you must enter and confirm the new password. Password restrictions are enforced on the root, ucsec, and ipcs user IDs. The new password must meet the following criteria:

  • Contains at least eight characters.

  • Contains one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, and one number.

  • Contains one special character from the following: a hyphen (-), an underscore (_), the at sign (@), an asterisk (*), or the exclamation mark (!). Do not use the pound sign (#), the dollar sign ($), or an ampersand (&).
