FactoryTalk Security is a set of services integrated into the FactoryTalk Directory.
The module only supports Network Directory centralized security services, managed
by FactoryTalk Security. These services are configured in the FactoryTalk
Administration Console, which is shipped on your module Client Tools CD.
You must have administrator privileges to make any changes to security. Any
changes to module security settings will automatically log out the current user
because the users and user groups available depend on the security mode selected.
Changing the security mode will also cause the module to reboot. This process may
take a few minutes.
