2.1 Starting Sheer DNA Manage
Sheer DNA Manage is password protected to ensure security, and is only
available to users with Administrator privileges. Before you start working
with Sheer DNA Manage, make sure you know the user name, password and
the Sheer DNA Gateway IP address or host name that you require.
Note: If a user does not login to the Sheer DNA Manage, NetworkVision or
EventVision applications during a specified period of time (the default is one
month) the user’s account will be locked automatically. The default period
can be changed in the Sheer DNA Registry. The period of time is measured
from the time the user last logged out of any of the Sheer DNA Client
applications. For information about unlocking a user, refer to page 147.
