User management

From this page you can manage the user accounts of your video system. You can create a new user, edit the details of an existing user, and delete a user.

User roles

You must assign one or more user roles to a user account. Three user roles, which possess dierent system rights, are dened:
• ADMIN: A user with ADMIN rights can
create a new user and change all settings, except the security audit congurations. This user cannot upload audit certicates.
• USER: A user with USER rights can make
calls and search the phonebook.
• AUDIT: A user with AUDIT rights can
change the security audit congurations and upload audit certicates.
The roles ADMIN, USER and AUDIT have non­overlapping 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 account. The user name is admin with no password set. The admin user has USER, ADMIN and AUDIT roles.
It is highly recommended to set a password for this user.

Security mode

If you have a JTIC labeled system, you can enable/disable the strong security mode from this page. Strong security mode sets very strict password requirements, and requires all users to change their password on next login.
The Users page
The system comes with admin as default user account. The admin user possesses USER, ADMIN and AUDIT roles.
User name
You can create as many
user accounts as you
like on your system.
User role(s)
Each user must have one or more roles.
