The procedure below uses the HCP S Series Management Console to download the contents of the common-password dictionary.

Log in to the Management Console using a user account with the security role.
Go to Configuration > Security.
On the SECURITY page, if Block common passwords is set to Off, set the option to On.
In the Common-password source file field, click the download icon ().
If prompted, specify a file name and location for the downloaded dictionary content. Then click Save.
The default name for the downloaded file is the name of the uploaded file, followed by a timestamp indicating when the upload of the file finished. The time stamp has this format, where Z means that the time is in UTC:
```
yyyy-MM-ddThh_mm_ss.msecZ
```
For example, if the name of the uploaded file is CommonPasswords.txt, the default name for the downloaded file would look like CommonPasswords-2023-03-23T15_25_09.578Z.txt.

If the name of the uploaded file includes a path, which is possible if the file was uploaded using the HCP S Series management API, the separators in the path are converted to underscores (_) in the default name for the downloaded file. For example, if the name of the uploaded file is S-Series/Dictionaries/CommonPasswords-rev1.txt, the default name for the downloaded file would look like S-Series_Dictionaries_CommonPasswords-rev1-2023-03-23T15_25_09.578Z.txt.
