Table 21 AMP Setup > Users > Add/Edit User Fields and Default Values
Setting Default Description
Username None Sets the username as an alphanumeric string. The Username is used when logging in to AirWave
and appears in AirWave log files.
Role None Specifies the User Role that defines the Top viewable folder, type and access level of the user
specified in the previous field.
The admin user defines user roles on the AMP Setup > Roles page, and each user in the system is
assigned to a role.
Password None Sets the password for the user being created or edited. Enter an alphanumeric string without
spaces, and enter the password again in the Confirm Password field.
NOTE: Because the default user's password is identical to the name, it is strongly recommended
that you change this password.
Name None Allows you to define an optional and alphanumeric text field that takes note of the user's actual
name.
Email Address None Allows you to specify a specific email address that will propagate throughout many additional
pages in AirWave for that user, including reports, triggers, and alerts.
Phone None Allows you to enter an optional phone number for the user.
Notes None Enables you to cite any additional notes about the user, including the reason they were granted
access, the user's department, or job title.
NOTE: AirWave enables user roles to be created with access to folders within multiple branches of the overall hierarchy. This
feature assists non-administrator users who support a subset of accounts or sites within a single AirWave deployment, such as
help desk or IT staff.
