Creating a read-only administrative account
You can create a local user account with access to view Firebox con-
figuration pages. When you log in as a read-only administrator, you
cannot:
•Click the Reboot button on the System Status page.
• Change the configuration mode on the External page.
•Click the Reset Event Log and Sync Time with Browser Now
buttons on the Logging page.
•Click the Synchronize Now button on the System Time page.
•Click the Regenerate IPSec Keys button on the VPN page.
• Change the configuration mode on the Managed VPN page.
•Click the Launch Wizard button from the Wizard page.
If you try to do these things, you get a message tell you that you
have read-only access and cannot change the configuration file.
To create a read-only user account, edit the user account. Use the
Administrative Access drop-down list to select Read Only.

users on your network. To apply a WebBlocker profile to a user’s
account, click the WebBlocker tab and select a profile from the
drop-down list. You must first create WebBlocker profiles in the
WebBlocker > Profiles area of the Edge’s configuration pages. For
more information on WebBlocker profiles, see “Creating WebBlocker
Profiles” on page 121.
