Managing Users
This section describes how to mange user access levels in the SmartNode Web Portal. (Refer to “Connecting to
the web server and logging on to the Web Portal” on
page 23 for information about how to login to the Web
Portal).
Understanding User Access Levels
The Web Portal is designed to provide varying degrees of wri
te and read privileges to users. By default, the root
user is given full read and write access. This is required so that the root user can function as the system admin-
istrator without any restrictions imposed. Subsequent users can be created with the ability to read and write, or
jus
t to read. An integer value from 0 - 9 is assigned to each user.
Figure 3. SmartNode User Access Levels
• A user with an access level of 0 has access to configurations created with levels 0 - 9.
• A user w
ith an access level of 4, will have access to configurations created with user levels 4 - 9.
• Conf
igurations created with user levels 0 -3 will be invisible to user levels 4-9.
Viewing the User List
It is possible to create an unlimited list of users, each wit
h an assignment from 0-9. Any user can view the entire
list of users, however only a root user with an access level of 0 can modify the access rights of other users.
To view the user list:
1. Se
lect Users from the navigation panel.
