Setup Security Menu
Command Description
1) Set system security options for
NetLinx Master
See the Security Options Menu section
on page 124 for descriptions of each
menu item.
This selection will bring up the Security Options Menu that allows you to change the security
options for the NetLinx Master. These are "global" options that enable rights given to users
and groups.
For instance, if you want to disable Telnet security for all users, you would simply go to this
menu and disable Telnet security for the entire Master. This would allow any user, whether
they have the rights to Telnet or not.
These options can be thought of as options to turn on security for different features of the
