Overview
User access level feature is used to achieve different access levels for different authorized users.
It is useful for protecting the IP phone from unauthorized configuration, and popularly used for
the Hosted PBX solution. The following describes how to customize the access permission for

This guide applies to the following Yealink IP phones:
