Managing users
Local users are a set of user attributes configured on the local device. A local user is uniquely identified
by username. To enable users using a certain network service to pass the local authentication, you must
configure accounts for the users to the local user database on the device.
A local user has the following attributes:
• Username
• User password
• User privilege level
• Service type that the user can use
• Virtual device to which the user belongs
User levels
User levels, from low to high, are visitor, monitor, configure, and management. A user with a higher
level has all the operating rights of a lower level.
• Visitor—Users of this level can perform ping and traceroute operations, but can neither access the
device data nor configure the device.
• Monitor—Users of this level can only access the device data but cannot configure the device.
• Configure—Users of this level can access data from the device and configure the device, but they
cannot upgrade the host software, add/delete/modify users, or back up/restore the application
file.
• Management—Users of this level can perform any operations for the device.
The previously mentioned user levels apply to users using root virtual devices only.
