Creating and maintaining user-defined accounts
In addition to the default accounts—root, factory, admin, and user—Fabric OS supports up to 256
user-defined accounts in each logical switch (domain). These accounts expand your ability to track
account access and audit administrative activities.
Each user-defined account is associated with the following:
• Admin Domain list—Specifies what Admin Domains a user account is allowed to log in to.
• Home Admin Domain—Specified the Admin Domain that the user is logged in to by default. The
home Admin Domain must be a member of the user’s Admin Domain list.
• Role—Determines functional access levels within the bounds of the user’s current Admin
Domain.
Access rights for any user session are determined both by the user’s role-based access rights and
by the contents of the currently selected Admin Domain. See Chapter 1, “Introducing Web Tools” for
additional information about Admin Domains and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC).
