Changed PW doesn't work
Today, when I tried to login, the USG showed me a login dialog which contains two additional password fields, means one for "user name", one for "current password", one for "new password", one for "confirm new password" and one for "one-time password". I never saw these additional "new password" and "confirm new password" fields in past. Is this something new of the v4.30?
But anyway, I've created a new password and confirmed it, but now I'm not longer able to login, neither with the new password nor with the old password.
My question: Is the password being saved in the startup.conf? Means when resetting the USG to factory default, login via admin/1234 and loading the last startup.conf, the old password is in place again after reboot?

Maybe you had caps lock on for the new password?
You just have to reset and load from a backup file.

Hi @USG_User,
The behavior is that, when you reset the USG to factory fault, log in credential is back to admin/1234.
When you log in device at first time, it will prompt you to change password, the new password will save to startup-configuration then.

In the meantime I have carryied out a factory reset by long-pressing the reset button. Unfortunately the sys LED didn't start blinking as described. But plugging-out the power supply encouraged the USG to reboot with factory settings. Then I have uploaded my last startup-config.conf which was directly applied without an additional reboot. Since then the USG works like before.Finally I have disabled the automatic password change after a defined number of days (preset was 180 days)0
