Access Control
If
the
<Phone-UI-User-Mode>
parameter
is
enabled,
the
phone
GUI
honors
the
user
access
attribute
of
the
relevant parameters when the GUI presents a menu item.
For menu entries that are associated with a single configuration parameter:
• Provisioning the parameter with “ua=na” (“ua” stands for “user access”) attribute makes the entry
disappear.
• Provisioning the parameter with “ua=ro” attribute makes the entry read-only and non-editable.
For menu entries that are associated with multiple configuration parameters:
• Provisioning all concerned parameters with “ua=na” attribute makes the entries disappear.
Administrator and User Accounts
The Cisco IP Phone firmware provides specific administrator and user accounts. These accounts provide
specific login privileges. The administrator account name is admin; the user account name is user. These
account names cannot be changed.
The admin account gives the service provider or Value-added Reseller (VAR) configuration access to the
Cisco IP phone. The user account gives limited and configurable control to the device end user.
The user and admin accounts can be password protected independently. If the service provider sets an
administrator account password, you are prompted for it when you click Admin Login. If the password does
not yet exist, the screen refreshes and displays the administration parameters. No default passwords are assigned
to either the administrator or the user account. Only the administrator account can assign or change passwords.
