User Administration
Chapter 7 69
Administering Users
Required Privileges
Only root and admin can administer users. The root user has unlimited
administration privileges. Admin can view and change all attributes except
those that belong to the root user.
There are several ways to manage users. A user can be added, edited, or
removed. Multiple users can be managed in Groups or Access lists. The
difference between Groups and Access lists are that Groups are established in
the operating system on the Digi CM unit and privileges are predefined such
as Root or Admin and are used most often for configuration. Access lists allow
access to the ports and are created by defining the privileges of the lists.
Access Lists manage rights of multiple users at the same time. Multiple users
with the same rights are associated with an access list. This allows the
administrator to simplify the overall administrative process.
