create a new user, edit the details of an

USER, ADMIN and AUDIT roles.

 

 

 

 

 

 

User roles

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You must assign one or more user roles

 

 

 

 

to a user account. Three user roles, which

 

 

 

 

possess different system rights, are defined:

 

 

 

 

Admin: A user with admin rights can

 

 

 

 

create a new user and change all settings,

 

 

 

 

except the security audit configurations.

 

 

 

 

This user cannot upload audit certificates.

 

 

 

 

User: A user with user rights can make

 

 

 

 

calls and search the phonebook.

 

 

 

 

Audit: A user with audit rights can

 

 

 

 

change the security audit configurations

 

 

 

 

and upload audit certificates.

 

 

 

 

The roles ADMIN, USER and AUDIT have non-

 

 

 

 

overlapping rights, but a user can be created

 

 

 

 

with one or more roles to combine the rights

 

 

 

 

of more than one role.

 

 

 

 

Note: It is very important that at least one

 

 

 

 

user has ADMIN rights at all times.

 

 

 

 

The default user account

 

 

 

 

The system comes with a default user
