How to add users
You can add Wave users using any of the following methods:
• Adding users via the User dialog. See page 11-92.
• Creating and updating users via a user template. See page 11-92.
• Importing users via a CSV file. See page 11-99.
The Admin user
The Admin user comes pre-defined in Wave, and belongs to the Administrators role. The Admin
user and all users who belong to the Administrators role are permitted to run the User/Group
Management applet. They also can perform all administrative functions.
You can give individual administrative permissions to any user—for example, permission to
shut down the phone system—without making the user a member of the Administrators role.
See “Wave permissions” on page 11-109.
Changing the Admin user’s password
Immediately after installing Wave, you should change the passwords of the Admin user and
Operator user, in order to make your system more secure from unauthorized access. For more
information, see “Changing the Admin and Operator passwords” on page A-3.
Adding users on a Wave IP 500 Server
When you add a user, you specify the type of phone (SIP, digital, or analog) assigned to that user
(as described in “Specifying a phone type and model” on page 11-14).
On a Wave IP 500 Server, be aware of the following limits when you add users:
• A maximum of 50 analog, digital, and SIP phones are supported in a mixed
configuration.
• A maximum of 50 SIP phones are supported in a SIP-only configuration (with no digital
or analog phones)
• A maximum of 48 digital phones are supported in a digital-only configuration (with no
SIP endpoints or analog phones)
