To set a local authentication password from the LDAP configuration page,
  1. Hover over the Local Authentication Password fields and click Edit.
  2. You can choose to generate a random password for every user or set a predefined password for all users.
  3. Click Save.

 
Ensure the predefined password meets all the requirements of the password policy.
