Configuring user accounts for serial console switches
The Users category lists user names and their access levels. You can add, modify, or delete a user
account from this dialog box. Up to 64 user accounts can be created. The Security Lock-out feature is also
controlled from this panel.
A user can be assigned one of three access levels: Console Switch Administrator, Administrator, or User.
The user access level enables you to assign individual server access rights to a user. The table following
