A: Currently not. This is not sensitive information like your WiFi password. Anyone with your IP and port can control the lights.

### 4: I want to do a software update, but it says "OTA lock active"?
A: You need to go to the settings page. Untick the "OTA Lock" setting and input your passphrase in the field below it.
Now apply the settings and reboot. After that you can carry out the software update. Don't forget to re-enable OTA Lock afterwards! To enable, you don't have to enter the passphrase, unless you want to change it.
