3.9 Setting Up ONS 15327 Security

The ONS 15327 has four security levels that limit the functions you can perform: Retrieve, Maintenance, Provisioning, and Superuser. A Retrieve user can retrieve and view CTC information but cannot set or modify parameters. A Maintenance user can see Maintenance options only. A Provisioning user can see only Provisioning and Maintenance options. A Superuser, usually the network element administrator, can perform all of the functions of the other security levels and set names, passwords, and security levels for other users. Table 3-11shows a list of CTC actions that can be performed at each security level.
