In addition to your ZIH password, i.e. your main password, you can set separate service passwords for selected services such as WLAN. After setting the WLAN password, you log in to the WLAN network "eduroam" with this password, for example. For the remaining services, continue to use your main password.
If you have already set a service password, you can change it or reset it to your main password.

After specifying your main password, you can then set a new service password, change the existing password, or reset to your main password, as appropriate.
Please note that service passwords must also comply with the ZIH password policy, the rules of which are displayed in the self-service portal when a password is changed.
The new service password is only synchronized to the connected target system that provides the selected service. This synchronization can take up to one hour.
