4.4.4 User Login Configuration

Use the User Configuration menu to restrict management access based on specified user names and

passwords. There are two user types, Administrator and Guest. Only the Administrator has write access

for parameters governing the SNMP agent. You should therefore assign a user name and password to

the Administrator as soon as possible, and store it in a safe place. (If for some reason your password is

lost, or you cannot gain access to the System Configuration Program, contact Technical Support for

assistance.) The parameters shown on this screen are indicated in the following figure and table.

Parameter Description

Telnet or HTTP.

Console

Authorizes management via the console.

Telnet
