Setting empty passwords through auto-provision method

[amvalente]

Hello,

I'm trying to configure an admin empty password through auto provisioning without success. in the configuration file I'm sending the following:

security.user_password = admin:

Is this the correct way?
I have also tried to configure an adnin empty password through the web interface and I didn't find any problems to do it, so I think maybe I'm doing something wrong in the auto provision method.

Any help ?

I'm having this problem with a yealink SIP-19P, with 31.72.0.1 firmware version.

I'm having this problem with a yealink SIP-19P, with 31.72.0.1 firmware version.

I'm pretty new to this but in a recent communication I was told this:

If you want to reset the configuration of a parameter, set the value of the parameter to !NULL! or %NULL%.

I don't know if this will work for passwords...

Thanks for your feedback but I think it didn't solve my problem

Your tip would work if the default password was the desired empty value of the password (admin: ), but the default is admin: admin, therefore does not solve the problem.
The problem here is to set through auto-provision method an empty admin password, in order to access the phone without password.

It seems strange that through the web interface I can configure an empty password and through auto-provisioning not.
The thread you referred the problem is similar but for the old v70, so I'm hopping that in the firmware v72 setting an empty password through auto-provision can be somehow done.

Maybe the Yealink Support can tell me how to do it ?

I would never in 1000 years set an empty password to a device. What is the gain?

Hi amvalente ,

Sorry. In order to improve the security, we advise you not to set empty password.

You can leave below syntax as blank and test again.

security.user_password =

Hi Yealink Support,

I've tried your suggestion however it didn't work, I also tried to set empty passwords to the admin and user accounts without success. Could you set an empty password with your suggestion ? Maybe my firmware version doesn't support this functionality?

Hi amvalente,

It seems that we can't set empty password by auto provisoning method. But i still think it is a issue that the password can set empty password.

So can I expect that in future firmware versions it will be possible ?
