3.1 Security Settings
Access to system settings is controlled by Service Users and Rights Groups. stored in the control unit's security
settings. These are stored separately from the system's configuration settings. All actions involving communications
between Branch Gateway Manager and the system require a service user name and password. That service user must be
a member of a Rights Group with permissions to perform the required action.
In the example illustrated above:
· Service user X can read and write the configuration. However they can only edit Operator settings and can only
make changes that can be merged.
· Service user Y can read and write the configuration, edit all settings and make changes that require reboots.
· Service user Z can read and write the configuration, edit all settings and make changes that require reboots. They
can also access the security settings.
· The Security Administrator can only access the security settings.
Security Administrators
By default the security administrator is the only user who can access the system's security settings using Branch
Gateway Manager's security mode.
Service Users
Each service user has a name, a password and is a member of one or more Rights Groups.
Rights Groups
The Rights Groups to which a service user belongs determine what actions they can perform. Where a service user has
been configured as a member of more than one Rights Group, they combine the functions available to the separate
Rights Groups.
