Safeguard for Privileged Passwords makes an SSL connection to the SAP Application Server using a TCP port between 3300 and 3399, depending on the SAP system number (also known as the "instance number").
|
Note: You can have multiple instances of SAP running on a server, each using a different network port in the range 3300-3399. The last two digits of the port are called the system number (or instance number). Also, when you assign a password to the account, the account is not usable until you log in and change the password from the admin-assigned value. |
|
Note: If a privileged user for the asset is of Dialog User or Communication Data type, assign RFC authorization for the RFCPING function module for that user. This allows the user to execute its functions remotely, such as changing the password. |

Use the Reset Password option to reset the password for this account. If you use the Set Password option and enter the same password used in SAP, the password check in Safeguard will fail. |
