By default, the DWS is enabled with the player serial number as password. To set a custom password with digest authentication, use the roNetworkConfiguration object:
...
In BrightAuthor:connected, go to the Network tab and locate the player you wish to access. Click the 
icon to access the DWS of that player.
...
Local DWS
DWS Access must be turned on in the Control tab of the remote DWS to access the local DWS.
Follow these steps to access the Diagnostic Web Server using a web browser on the local network:
...
Network Configuration: View extensive information about network interface settings.
Network Diagnostics: Run network diagnostics. This process may take some time to complete, especially when certain tests fail.
DNS Lookup: Test the specified DNS address to check whether name resolution is working.
Ping: Ping a device with the specified IP address or DNS name.
Trace Route: Perform a standard traceroute diagnostic on the specified IP/DNS address. Check the Resolve IP Addresses box to resolve the specified DNS name.
Network Neighborhood: Display information on the current network neighborhood.
Network Packet Capture: Allows the capture and collection of live network packet data from the network interfaces connected to the BrightSign player.
Disable Autorun: Force the player to reboot and disable the autorun script when the device restarts. This allows the unit to display the firmware version and IP address on screen (if the unit is connected to a local network). If the player has a serial port, you will be able to access the system shell over a null-modem serial cable.
Storage Formatting: Takes you to the Format Storage page, which allows you format storage devices attached to the player.
Storage: Select a storage device. You can only format storage devices that are currently unformatted; storage that already contains content files or autorun scripts cannot be reformatted.
File system: Select a supported file system to use when formatting the storage device.
Telnet/SSH: Allows you to enable Telnet and SSH for your player. This lets you access the BrightSign application console when serial port (the default I/O for the application console) is inaccessible. Not that we do not recommend enabling either Telnet or SSH in a production environment for security reasons. A Port Number can be set for Telnet, and a Port Number and SSH Password can be set for SSH as shown in the image below:
