Do what the General says or install openssh if you want to be able to "ssh root@n810" from a desktop.
actually, yes it will ask for a password for when used with a command. Try it...

even something as simple as:

sudo ls

will ask for the password. From my understanding that is how you can run commands w/o actually become an SU or root. I am assuming the origin in "super user do"
