Manage Passwords¶
The following sections describe the various ways passwords are set by default and can be configured between LDAP, VOSS Automate, and other systems, such as Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
Managing Your Own Account Password¶
Locally authenticated logged in users and administrators can manage their own account passwords.
Note
Users authenticated via Single Sign On (SSO) or LDAP do not have access to the Change Password functionality as these passwords are not managed in VOSS Automate. However, a user with Authentication Method set to Local can change their password even if a SSO IdP server is in scope in the hierarchy.
Self-service User Passwords¶
Self-service users can reset their passwords from the Self Service login page. Provided the user updates their local user password first and then logs in to authenticate, the password reset also updates the Self-service user’s UC app passwords, including Jabber devices, Voicemail, and WebEx passwords.
