Administer users
Required privileges
Only root and admin can administer users. The root user has unlimited administration privileges.
Admin can view and change all attributes except those that belong to the root user.
There are several ways to manage users. A user can be added, edited, or removed. Multiple users
can be managed in Groups or Access lists. The difference between Groups and Access lists are that
Groups are established in the operating system on the Digi CM unit and privileges are predefined
such as Root or Admin and are used most often for configuration. Access lists allow access to the
ports and are created by defining the privileges of the lists. Access Lists manage rights of multiple
users at the same time. Multiple users with the same rights are associated with an access list. This
allows the administrator to simplify the overall administrative process.
