System defined users
The IP VCR is pre-configured with two user accounts ("admin" and "guest"), but you can also add other users (see
Adding and updating users). Refer to the table below for descriptions of the pre-configured users.
User ID Description Usage tips
admin
The IP VCR must have at least one configured user
with administrator privileges. By default, the User
ID is "admin" and no password is required.
After logging into the IP VCR for the first time (see
Logging into the web interface), you can change the
User ID and password for this account. The
privilege level is fixed at administrator for the admin
user - who can see all the pages and change settings.
guest
The IP VCR must have at least one configured user
with access privileges below administrator. The fixed
User ID for this user is "guest" and by default no
password is required.
You cannot change the name of the "guest" User
ID, but you can add a password.
You can modify the system defined user accounts if you need to. For example, for security, you should add a password to
the admin account.
Note that you can also create new accounts with administrator or lower access privileges in addition to these pre-defined
users (see
Adding and updating users).
Refer to these topics for assistance in modifying these users:
• Modifying the "admin" User
• Modifying the "guest" User
