This write only object changes the current password to a given new password. The character mask is defined as below: 1.) The password length is min. 8 and max. 64 characters. 2.) All ASCII codes allowd (except code 0x00). 3.) For redundancy check the password is giving twice as shown below: password: nimbus3 octetstr = 2 x password: nimbus3nimbus3 4.) As an result of this the absolut length of octet string is even and min. 16 and max. 128 characters. The firmware will always return a string of five asterics (*****) when this object is reading. NOTE: If the device supports either SNMPv2c or SNMPv3, this object will work in SNMPv2c mode only since SNMPv3 provides own objects for user management.
