All special characters are allowed in passwords in both the CLI and GUI.
In the CLI only, you must quote or escape some characters to use them in a password.
In CLI, use | To represent the any word in CLI except the username |
---|---|
"ab\"c" | ab\"c |
ab\"c | ab"c |
ab\\ | ab\ |
"ab?c" | ab?c |
ab\\\\c | ab\c |
Most symbols can be entered without any special quoting. If you want to include spaces or double quotes as part of a name, however, care must be taken. To use double quotes, enclose the entire string in double quotes and put a backslash in front of each double quote you wish to be part of the name:
To use spaces, you have two choices. Either use a backslash before each space, or enclose the entire name in double quotes:
The above is true for passwords, zone names, and organization names and, with the exception of user names, anywhere you enter a free-form string.
User names cannot have special characters. Usernames are subject to additional restrictions from applications outside of Asset Manager and no special characters are allowed. There are discrepancies across in sources about whether upper or lower case is allowed and whether periods and hyphens are allowed, so the safer route is to limit usernames to the characters A-Z, numbers 0-9, and string length 1-31.

The IP/CIDR address lists and port lists you import to Asset Manager must conform to the basic syntax provided on this page. Examples are provided.
Example: 10.210.0.0/16 North America
10.230.0.0/16 EMEA
10.250.0.0/24 Australia
Example: 10.10.0.0/24 Servers
10.30.0.0/28 Partner Network
10.50.0.0/30 Customer Network
Example: 10.10.10.10 Gateway to Servers
10.30.40.50 Partner Gateway
10.50.60.70 Customer Gateway
Example: LANRead
WANRead
MySNMPRead
Note: The following characters are NOT supported in the SNMP Community String:
The default community credentials are as follows:
public,private,2read,2write,4changes,access,admin,agent,ANYCOM,all,CISCO,community,ctron,default,dilbert,enable,field,foo,foobar,guest,hello,IBM,ILMI,manager,mngt,monitor,network,openview,OrigEquipMfr,password,proxy,read,root,router,scotty,secret,security,seri,snmp,SNMP,snmpd,solaris,SUN,switch,system,tech,test,tiv0li,tivoli,world,write,MiniAP.
Note: For SNMP queries to be effective, Lumeta must be placed on a subnet (or given an IP address) that is authorized to poll the routers for SNMP. This may require modification of access control lists (ACL) to permit SNMP access from Asset Manager. Without this capability, the value of Path Discovery is reduced.
The following is the default list of TCP ports used for Port Discovery in Asset Manager:
