ATI Access Levels

The Hotwire Termination Unit has two access levels: Administrator and Operator. The access level determines what functions are accessible, as shown in Table 6-1, Access Levels.

Access levels can be applied to Login IDs and Telnet sessions. When access is through Telnet and a login is required for Telnet, the effective access level is the more restrictive of the Telnet session access level or the login access level. (See Table A-12, Telnet Session Options, in Appendix A, Configuration Options.)

When an access level of Operator is applied to Telnet sessions, a Login ID with Administrator authority is effectively reduced to Operator. It is no longer possible to change configuration options, and full access can be restored only by reloading factory defaults. (See Restoring Access to the User Interface in Chapter 3, Initial Startup and Configuration.)
