3.Click the down arrow from the Select User field to open a drop-down listing of authorized users. Initially, administrator and NetLinx are listed as default users. As more users are added through the Add User section of the Security tab, those users appear within the drop-down selection (along with checkmarks alongside their pre-configured access rights).

After a user is selected, the access rights previously assigned to that user during creation are selected/enabled with a checkmark next the corresponding field (Terminal/Admin Change/FTP/HTTP/Telnet/Security Configuration). Refer to the Security tab - Modify User page section on page 64 for more detailed field descriptions.

4.Click the down arrow from the Select New Group field to open a drop-down listing of authorized groups and assign the user to that group. Initially, administrator is listed as a default group. As more groups are added through the Add Group section of the Security tab, those groups appear within the drop-down selection (along with checkmarks alongside their pre-configured access rights).

Any previously configured user access rights are populated in the left checkbox column. A previously created group’s access rights are populated in the right checkbox column. Any properties possessed by a group (ex: access rights, directory associations, etc.) are inherited by all users who are assigned to that group.

5.Enable (check) or disable (uncheck) the checkboxes associated to the desired user access rights. Alterations made within this window modify any previously access rights that were assigned to the selected user when it was created.
