Viewing Current User Accounts
Access to the console, whether using the console port or via Telnet, is controlled using a user name and
password. Up to eight user accounts can be created. The console interface will not let you delete the
current logged-in user, to prevent accidentally deleting all of the users with Root privilege.
Only users with the Root privilege can delete users.
To view the current user accounts, highlight User Accounts Management from the main menu. The
current user accounts can be read from the Setup User Accounts screen.
Deleting a User Account
1. Toggle the Action field to Delete.

the password for the account to be able to delete it.
