Description

 

 

Configure User Properties:

This page allows an authorized user to configure the options for

 

either a pre-existing or new user. Configuration on this page

 

consists of both the options and directories to which the user is

 

granted access.

Update

 

• This button submits the modified page (form) information back

 

to the server.

 

• If the user was successfully added after pressing the Update

 

button; a status message of “User XYZ was successfully

 

added” is displayed.

 

• Always press the Update button after making any changes

 

to this page.

Back

 

• This button returns the user to the Manage Users page.

Delete

 

• This button is only available when modifying/deleting an

 

existing user.

 

 

User Security Details:

• This section provides the user with several rights which can

 

either be enabled or disabled.

User Name

 

• A valid character string defining the name of the user (4 - 20

 

alpha-numeric characters).

 

• If a user is selected from the Manage Users page, this row is

 

populated with the name of the selected user.

 

• The string is case sensitive and must be unique.

Group

 

• This drop-down list allows the user to associate a pre-defined

 

series of Group rights to the current user profile.

 

• Once the Update button is clicked, the group rights then are

 

transferred to the user by placing a checkmark next to those

 

rights which are available to the associated group.

 

• Any properties possessed by groups (ex: access rights,

 

directory associations, etc.) are inherited by users assigned to

 

a particular group.

 

• Unchecking a security option (which is available within the

 

associated group) does not remove that right from the

 

user. The only way to remove a group’s available security right

 

from a target user is to either NOT associate a group to a user

 

or to alter the security rights of the group being associated.

Terminal (RS232USB) Access

 

• This selection enables or disables Terminal Security Access for

 

the target user (through the USB connector).

 

 

Admin Change Password Access

• This selection enables or disables the user’s right to change the

 

administrator’s user passwords.

 

Note: Once the Administrator’s password has been changed, the

 

default password can no longer be used to gain access.

FTP Access

 

• This selection enables or disables FTP Access for the target

 

user.

HTTP Access

 

• This selection enables or disables Web Server access for the

 

target user.

Telnet Access

 

• This selection enables or disables Telnet Security access for

 

the target group.

Configuration Access

 

• This selection enables or disables the ability of a user to alter

 

the global Configuration settings. Example: IP, Reset URL, etc.

ICSP Access

 

• This selection grants this user ICSP access.

 

• ICSP communication allows a user to connect to the target

 

NetLinx Master via ICSP connection using any transport

 

method (TCP/IP, UDP/IP, and RS-232/USB).
