Security - Users
Select the Users option on the Security Page to access the User Security Details page (FIG. 42). The options on this page allow
authorized users to add/delete/lock User accounts and configure User’s access rights. Locking a user account disables the
account without deleting it.
A User represents a single client of the Master, while a Role specifies a set of privileges and permissions which can be assigned to a
user. An administrator can assign up to 5 roles to a single user. Any properties possessed by a role are inherited by all of the users
assigned to the role.
Default User Accounts
By default, the NetLinx Master creates the following accounts, access rights, directory associations, and security options:
FTP Security is always enabled on the Masters.
All other security options are disabled by default.

NOTE: You can delete and/or modify the "administrator" user
account to optimize system security. If deleted, you can create a
new user with the "administrator" user name with its own proper
settings, provided LDAP is not enabled.
NOTE: The "netlinx" user account is compatible with previous
NetLinx Master f irmware versions. This account is initially
created by default and can later be deleted or modified.
