BUILDING NETWORK ADAPTER BNA-1C/2CS/2DN

may not be desired that every user will be allowed to do everything with a BNA device.

These user accounts are required only for set-up, configuration and diagnostic applications if available. The communication protocols allowing the communication between BNA and its building management system are protected at the protocol level depending on the type of application firmware.

It is recommended to define several user roles because also an application firmware may use these user definitions to behave different in potentially provided user interfaces depending on the user who is currently logged in.

A BNA device allows up to 5 user definitions with different access rights. The root user already occupies one of these 5 definitions. Thus, 4 additional users or better to say user roles can be defined.

A user definition consists of three elements. These are a username or role name, a group membership and finally a password.

Usernames and password are freely definable. Both are maximal 8 character long. Whereas the group definitions are predefined each of it has specific characteristics.

Table 6-2gives an overview of the available user groups and their properties.
