Chapter 13: Manager Account Commands
216
Overview
The AT-S97 Management Software has one predefined manager account
with a privilege level of administrator. This account, with its login name of
“manager” and default password of “friend,” provides a network manager
with complete access to all of the commands.
The management module can support additional manager accounts, a
useful feature when more than one administrator manages a device.
Rather than having to share a login account, each administrator can be
given a separate account. The additional manager accounts can have a
privilege level of read, which allows a manager to view but not change the
settings, or read-write, which is nearly equivalent to the administrator
privilege level in the predefined account. The differences between the
predefined manager account and a privilege level of read-write are that
only the former can add, delete, and modify additional manager accounts,
clear the messages in the event log, and return the chassis to the default
settings.
Accounts are created with the USER ADD command, deleted and
modified with the USER DELETE and USER SET commands, and
displayed with the USER SHOW command.
Manager Account
Guidelines
Here are the guidelines for adding manager accounts to the
AT-MCF2000M Management Module:
ˆ The AT-MCF2000M Management Module supports up to ten read
accounts and ten read-write accounts in addition to the predefined
manager account.
ˆ Only the predefined manager account can have the privilege level of
administrator.
ˆ Only the predefined manager account with its privilege level of
administrator can add, delete, and modify user accounts, clear the
messages in the event log, and return the chassis to the default
settings.
ˆ The manager accounts are self-contained on the management module
and do not use the RADIUS or TACACS+ authentication protocol.
