Fortinet 1.2.0 manual Adding, editing and removing administrators

Management Settings

	My Profile	Display the admin user’s profile information, such as
		email address and security questions. The admin
		user is the default user of the service contract and
		has read and write privileges, similar to the admin
		administrator on a device. This user can only edit
		My Profile; the admin user cannot delete his or her
		own profile.
	Add User	Add a portal user login. For more information, see
		“Adding, editing and removing administrators” on
		page 52.
	User Name	The name of the user that has access to the portal
		web site. This is usually the person’s first and last
		name. Use the email address of the user to log in to
		the portal web site.
	Email	The email address used when logging in to the
		portal.
	Role	The specified role of the user. The roles for users
		are:
		Admin – read and write privileges
		Non-Admin– read privileges only
		e-Discovery– access to only the e-Discovery
		menu.
	Action	Select Delete to remove a user from the list.
		Select Edit to change the user’s information.
		These actions do not appear next to your own
		account. If you want to edit this account, see
		“Editing your login profile” on page 53.

	information, see “Configuring an alert profile” on page 55.

Note: In high availability (HA) clusters, daily quota that is assigned in HA clusters will be added up for each member transparently on the FortiOS side; however, at the same time, the current volume on each member is also counted together by the primary unit.

Adding, editing and removing administrators

If multiple users will be accessing the service portal, you can add those users to the account from the User Information area.

User roles define access privileges, and can be Non-Admin (read-only permissions), Admin (full permissions), or e-Discovery (read and write permissions for the e-Discovery menu).

Email addresses should be kept current. A user can retrieve a forgotten password by entering the email address configured for his or her account. If the email address is no longer functional, the user will not be able to retrieve the password, and an Admin role user must instead delete and recreate the user account.

From the Settings menu, an Admin user can update the user’s email address, user name, or role but not passwords or security questions. The user must update his or her own password and security questions by selecting Edit.
