Editing global Shared Credentials
To edit a shared or local credential,
- From the menu bar, selectTools -> System Administration.
- Next, selectGlobal -> Credentials Manage, then Credentials.TheGlobal Shared Credentialswindow displays, with a listing of pre-assigned, shared credentials.
At the bottom of the window are the View Associations, Roll, Add, Edit, and Remove buttons, along with the Close option. - Select a credential from the list, then clickEditto display the Edit Shared Credential window.

- Make any changes to the existing information in each section, based on the Credential Type you selected when you created the credential.
- ClickOKto save your edits.
Notes:
- The updating credentials process requires that an account be associated with a device. This account is used to establish the initial session into the device to make the credential updates.
- This manual process creates an association with the credential, and the local device to represent the username/password that is present on the device.
- If an Autodiscovery is made with an established account credential, the manual process of association is not required. The Communication tab on a device contains the account association for the Primary In-Band mechanism.
