Adding a New User
To add a new user to the system, you must be a member of the
admin
group. By default, only the
admin
user is a member of the
admin
group.
In this configuration example, a Certificate Administrator user is added to
the system, and then assigned to the
certadmin
group. The Certificate
Administrator is supposed to specialize in managing certificates and
private keys, without the possibility to change system parameters or
configure virtual SSL servers. A user who is a member of the
certadmin
group can therefore access the Certificate menu (
/cfg/cert
), but not
the SSL Server menu (
/cfg/ssl/server
). Access to the System menu
(
/cfg/sys
) is limited, and entails access only to the User Access Control
submenu (
/cfg/sys/user
).
