SessionAccess Level
Possible Settings: Level-1, Level-2, Level-3
Default Setting: Level-1
Specifies the highest security level allowed when accessing the menu-driven user
interface via a Telnet session. If a login is required for the session, the effective access
level is also determined by the user’s access level. When a login is
not
required, the
effective access level is determined by this option. This option does not affect the
TSAccess Management Link.
NOTE: The effective access level is always the lowest level assigned to either the
session or the user. For example, if the assigned Session Access Level is Level-2, but
the User Access Level is Level-3, then only Level-3 access is allowed for the se ssion.
Level-1 – Allows Telnet access to view system information, change configuration options,
and run tests. This is the highest access level allowed.
CAUTION: Before changing the session access level to Level-2 or 3, make sure that
the COM port’s Port Access Level is set to Level-1 and that at least one Login ID is set
to Level-1. If levels are not set properly, access will be lost until the unit is reset to
factory defaults. A reset is required if the Communication Port’s Port Use option is set
to Net Link (see Table4-25, Communication Port Options).
Level-2 – Allows Telnet access to view system information and run tests only; cannot
change configuration options.
Level-3 – Allows Telnet access to view system information only; cannot change
configuration options or run tests.
