Command Description
15) Make changes permanent
by saving to flash
When changes are made to the security settings of the Master, they are
initially only changed in RAM and are not automatically saved permanently
into flash. This selection saved the current security settings into flash.
Also, if you attempt to exit the Main Security Menu and the security settings
have changed but not made permanent, you will be prompted to save the
settings at that time.
16) Reset Database
(administrator only function)
If a user has been given "administrator rights", this additional menu option is
displayed. This selection will reset the security database to its Default Security
Configuration settings, erasing all users and groups that were added. This is a
permanent change and you will be asked to verify this before the database is
reset.
This function is only visible to administrators.
17) Display Database
(administrator only function)
If a user has been given "administrator rights", this additional menu option is
displayed. This selection will display the current security settings to the
terminal (excluding user passwords). It also displays all users (minus
passwords), their group assignment (if any) and their rights, as well as all
groups and their rights.
This function is only visible to administrators.
