Configuring Passwords and Privileges

2-8

Each station/node that attaches to this processor’s DH+

channel defaults to

the privilege class that is assigned to its channel; as system administrator,
however, you can give a particular node a unique privilege class.

Important:

•

Node privilege classes override the default privilege class of the channel
that is assigned on the Channel Privilege screen.

•

If you give any node class-1 privileges, an end user can configure a
terminal to attach as that node, creating a potential security risk.

Specify a privilege class for a node by following the steps on the left.
