SECURE CONSOLE SERVERS

User Accounts

9 User Operations

Commands that an End User needs to connect to their Servers through the SCS

9.1 User Accounts

The SCS has two types of user accounts: user, and root.

The SCS supports multiple user accounts, each having a unique combination of read, write and review privileges to each of the Ports. Each defined user may or may not have the ability to interact with any of the attached servers, in any possible combi- nation. Each user account is password protected.

9.1.1 SCS Users

SCS users are individuals that must connect with any or all of the attached net- working devices, for service, support or access needs. There can be many users defined, many more than would normally be required. Each user, when connecting to the system, establishes a session with a selected device by entering the connect com- mand. There may be up to 250 simultaneous user sessions.

9.1.2 root user

The root user is not like other SCS users. The root user will act as the System

Administrator of the SCS and has full access to the each of the SCS Ports. There is only one root user for each SCS system.

The root user defines the access rights of all users in the SCS system. The root user’s access is secured with the root password (default password is root). The root password should be changed and carefully guarded to prevent undesirable access.
