Operators
Introduction
Operators are users of the client. Each operator is assigned a role which describes their
capabilities and privileges.
Operators are authenticated in one of two ways:
• Windows Authentication - requires an assigned Windows principal
(domain/workstation name and username) which relates to a Windows OS
account.
• Basic Authentication - victor Site Manager manages users accounts without
the need for an assigned Windows principal or Windows OS account.
Create a New Operator
New operators can be added to the system.
Procedure 17-1
Create a New Operator (Windows Authentication)
When using Windows to authenticate operator accounts, Windows credentials are checked when
the operator logs in to the client. As such, operators will only be able to log in if they have been
assigned a user account on both the client and site manager machines. If a domain controller is
not being used, these accounts must be created manually and be logged into to activate them.
It is recommended that the role level assigned to the operator account, mirrors somewhat the role
level assigned to the Windows user account.
