Note When creating new users from the node view, you must add CTC users to each node where they need access. Users are not automatically added to other network nodes. When creating new users from the network view, the user will be created on all nodes. You can also delete and change a user on all nodes from this view.

Procedure: Edit User Security (Node Level)

Step 1 Display the CTC node view.

Step 2 Click the Provisioning > Security tabs.

Step 3 On the Security pane, click the user you want to edit.

Step 4 On the right portion of the Security pane, enter new security information for the user: name, password, password confirmation, and/or security level. A Superuser does not need to enter an old password. Other users must enter their old password to change a new password.

Step 5 Click Apply.

Note Changing user permissions and access levels does not take effect while you are logged into CTC. The changes take effect the next time you log into CTC. If you have access to more than one node, you must change the user settings at each node.

Procedure: Edit User Security at the Network Level (all nodes)

Step 1

Display the CTC network view.

Step 2

Click the Provisioning > Security tabs.

Step 3

Click the Change button.

Step 4

In the Change User dialog box enter the following:

 

 

• Name— Type the user name.
