Is it possible to change the password of the 'telecomadmin' user on the Web interface of the ONT/ONU?

Hi!

Firstly, your information is correct :). You can change the admin password only via U2000.

Please see the steps:

Step 1. Download the old VAS profile and find the UserInterface nodes:

<UserInterface>
<X_HW_WebUserInfo NumberOfInstances="1">
<X_HW_WebUserInfoInstance Enable="1" InstanceID="2" Password="UD3F450BF1420B1D1EC4FC28B83634BB" UserLevel="0" UserName="e6588EED7B47E466BE215DD0D1239256"/>
</X_HW_WebUserInfo>
</UserInterface>

Step 2. Change the Password and the UserName to what you want. For example telecomadmin/telecomadminpasswd.

<UserInterface>
<X_HW_WebUserInfo NumberOfInstances="1">
<X_HW_WebUserInfoInstance Enable="1" InstanceID="2" Password="telecomadminpasswd" UserLevel="0" UserName="telecomadmin"/>
</X_HW_WebUserInfo>
</UserInterface>

Step 3. Upload the new VAS profile and bind again.

Good luck! :)

Great! Thank you Tina!

Hi

If you don't have any management software or ACS (TR069) then fastest way to change password is sending xml BY OLT

1. Prepare your xml like this:

<InternetGatewayDevice>
<UserInterface>
<X_HW_CLIUserInfo NumberOfInstances="1">
<X_HW_CLIUserInfoInstance InstanceID="1" Username="telnet" Userpassword="telnet"/>
</X_HW_CLIUserInfo>
<X_HW_WebUserInfo NumberOfInstances="2">
<X_HW_WebUserInfoInstance Enable="1" InstanceID="1" UserLevel="1" UserName="root" Password="user"/>
<X_HW_WebUserInfoInstance Enable="1" InstanceID="2" UserLevel="0" UserName="admin" Password="admin"/>
</X_HW_WebUserInfo>
</UserInterface>
</InternetGatewayDevice>

2. Put it on ftp
3. Upload your xml to ONT by OLT:

XPON-OLT>enable
XPON-OLT#diagnose
XPON-OLT(diagnose)%%ont-load stop #reset load settings
XPON-OLT(diagnose)%%ont-load info configuration yourfilename.xml ftp 1.2.3.4 ftpuser ftppassword
XPON-OLT(diagnose)%%ont-load select 0/0 0 1
XPON-OLT(diagnose)%%ont-load start

XPON-OLT(diagnose)%%display ont-load select
{ <cr>|frameid/slotid<S><Length 3-15> }:

Command:
display ont-load select
--------------------------------------------------------------
F/S/P ONT ID Load state Load progress
--------------------------------------------------------------
0/0/0 1 Fail 0%
--------------------------------------------------------------

XPON-OLT(diagnose)%%display ont-load result 0/0 0 1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Program fragment num : -
Program current fragment index : -
Program current fragment loading progress : Initial state
Configuration loading progress : Failed to obtain the file from
the OLT and the FTP server
Configuration loading error info : -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With the HG8245D you can't change it from the web interface, but You *can* change it... You have mess with a huge XML file and use SHA256 and MD5 to do it though. It's a pain in the ass. (Until you figure it out).

What is the idea when depriving of changing a root password to be set via CLI or TR69? Forcing to use a proprietary NMS to have a secure configuration.

very good answer

You're telling me the XML accepts plaintext passwords? I find this highly unlikely

The password may be easy to maintain and prevent password forgetting.
