How to change your voicemail personal identification number (PIN).
When changing a phone PIN, follow the security guidelines provided by the Cisco Unity Connection administrator. In general, shorter PINs are easier to use, but longer PINs are more secure, especially using a nontrivial PIN. The phone PIN must be at least five digits long.
A nontrivial PIN means:
- The PIN is not the same as previous PINs.
- The digits are not all the same (for example, 99999).
- The digits are not consecutive (for example, 12345).
- The PIN is not the same as the extension.
- The PIN does not spell the subscribers name.
- Password cannot contain digits that are dialed in a straight line on a keypad
- Password cannot contain repeated groups of three or more numbers
