The Hurricane 9200/S is configured with a default user name and
password combination, or login, for accessing Configuration
Manager. If you want to allow other users to access the program,
you can create additional user logins and specify their privilege
levels. You can also change the password for the default login or for
any logins you create.
The default login allows the user full access to all Configuration
Manager features, including creating up to four additional user
logins. You can assign one of the following privilege levels to each
additional login:
Root-level privileges enable users to modify all the features
available in Configuration Manager. The default login has
root-level privileges.
Intermediate-level privileges enable users to change their
own passwords. They can also change the PPP interface
username and password, and the ATM VC interface
values. (Note, however, that Intermediate users can
change these only on the PPP and ATM VC pages – not
on the Quick Configuration page.) These users can view—
but not create or modify— all other system information.
User-level privileges enable users to change their own
passwords. They can view—but not create or modify— all
other system information.
To create additional logins or modify existing logins, follow these
instructions:
1. Log into Configuration Manager using the default user name
and password, and then click the Admin tab.
The User Configuration page displays by default:
