If exposing the node to all LAN subnets it would be a good idea to include a warning with the mention of changing credentials that connecting to an unsecure or public network without changing those credentials will allow remote access to the node. Old laptops are a common home for nodes (built-in battery backup) and it is amazing how many of these unhardened machines for various industries/nodes end up at conferences on hotel wifi.
Quick and dirty expansion of the note to explain WHY they should change those credentials should be sufficient to prompt most users.
