BOMGAR VAULT 16.1 WHERE DO I REVIEW DEFAULT PASSWORD TEMPLATES?
Where Do I Review Default Password Templates?
1. Go to Administration > Settings > Templates.
2. Review the Name column to ensure the default templates include all of the platforms you use.
3. Ask yourself the following questions:
l
Do the default templates meet my password requirements in terms of complexity? This is also a good time to review
your company's practices regarding passwords. Are your passwords complex enough? Do you have specific
systems that have restrictions on special characters?
o
Review the Length, Lowercase, Uppercase, Numbers, and Specials columns to ensure the default
templates meet your password requirements.
4. If the default password parameters are acceptable, no further action is necessary, and you can proceed to configure other
aspects of Vault.
The Default Templates Do Not Fit My Needs. What Can I Do?
There are different ways to create a template that works for your platform and passwords. If you would like to make minor changes
to a template, you can edit an existing template. If there is not a default template that meets your needs at all, you can create a new
template. For more information, please see Edit the Default Templates or Create a New Template.
Edit the Default Templates
To edit an existing template, follow the steps below.
1. Go to Administration > Settings > Templates.
2. Click on the pencil (edit) icon beside the template you wish to edit.
3. Edit the template name by typing in the Name field.
4. On the Basic tab, select and specify the characteristics you wish to enforce. Check or uncheck each item as needed, and
type in new information when applicable.
