Guest Users Role
A Guest User is a visitor or other temporary user to whom you grant specific
limited rights to use the network. A Provisioner uses the Guest and IoT Manager
Application to create any number of Guest User accounts. Guest User accounts
are stored in Local Password Repository (LPR).
The created Guest User account contains the following attributes:
l Account Details: Includes Username and Password for the temporary
account.
l Personal Data: Includes first name, last name, email address, and mobile
number of the User.
l Access Duration: Specifies the account activation time for network access
usage and the duration.
l Auto Expiry Deletion: Removes the Guest Users automatically after the
specified duration.
l Notification Settings: Sends an Email or SMS notification stating that the
Guest account has been created. The notification contains the Guest User's
Name and Password and is usually sent directly to the Guest.
Launching Guest and IoT Manager
The Access Control Engine settings must be configured prior launching the

Guest and IoT Manager consists of two applications:
l Administrator Application: The Application that the Administrator uses to
configure Guest and IoT Manager to create Provisioner(s) and Self-Service
accounts.
l Provisioner Application: The Application that Provisioners use to create
Guest Users and Devices.
