Maintenance Manual

Disable
user
account
Select to disable this
account.
This can be useful if you want to keep an account's details, but do
not want anyone to be able to use it at the moment.
You cannot disable the system-created admin account.
The system-created 'guest' account is disabled by default. If you
enable it, the MCU will create a security warning.
In advanced account security mode, a non-admin account will expire
after 30 days of inactivity; that is, the MCU will disable it. To re-
enable a disabled account, clear this option.
For more information about advanced account security mode, refer
to Configuring security settings.
Lock
password
Prevents user from changing
password.
This is useful where you want multiple users to be able to use the
same user ID. The system-created guest account has Lock password
enabled by default.
Force user
to change
password
on next
login
Select this option to force a
user to change their
password. Next time this user
attempts to log in to the MCU,
a change password prompt
will appear.
This option is enabled by default for a newly created account. It is a
good idea for new users to set their own secure passwords.
This option is not available for accounts where Lock password is
selected.
When the user changes his password, the MCU clears this check box
automatically.
Privilege
level
The access privileges to be
granted to this user.
See User privileges for detailed explanations.
E.164
phone
number
Associates an E.164
telephone number with a user
account.
If the MCU receives a call from the E.164 phone number provided, it
matches the number to the user account. This allows the MCU to
take appropriate action if the Associated video endpoint field is
completed or a picture is uploaded for the user.
Associated
video
endpoint
Associates a configured
endpoint with the user. This is
used when a participant's
video stream is from a
separate device such as a
web camera on a PC or a
recording from an IP VCR.
If you set an associated video endpoint for a user, when a call is
received from the E.164 phone number, the MCU knows that that call
is audio-only. To provide the user with a video stream, the MCU calls
the endpoint entered in this field. The user then has the complete
conference experience with the audio on the telephone and a
separate video stream for example on a computer with a web camera
installed. The audio and video steams are matched so that the layout
views for all participants reflect the level of audio received on the call
from the E.164 phone number.
Do not set the user's E.164 phone number and Associated video
endpoint as the same number. If a user is going to be a normal video
endpoint user, simply enter the E.164 phone number and leave the
associated video endpoint field set to None.
If required, a user's video contribution can be a recording on an IP
VCR. In this case the recording must first be configured as an H.323
endpoint on the MCU.
See Adding an H.323 endpoint for information about adding
endpoints.
