Security 10-15
The ATM Circuits Configuration menu screen appears as follows:
Note: Multiple ATM circuit configuration is supported on multiple ATM-capable routers. Although some of the
parameters of the Circuit Configuration screens pertain to Voice and Connection Profiles, it is assumed that if
the user has been granted PVC configuration access, they are permitted configuration access to all PVC
parameters.
User Accounts
When you first set up and configure the Netopia Firmware Version 5.4, no passwords are required to access the
configuration screens. Anyone could tamper with the router’s configuration by simply connecting it to a console.
However, by adding user accounts, you can protect the most sensitive screens from unauthorized access. User
accounts are composed of name/password combinations that can be given to authorized users.
Caution!
You are strongly encouraged to add protection to the configuration screens. Unprotected screens could allow an
unauthorized user to compromise the operation of your entire network.
Once user accounts are created, users who attempt to access protected screens will be challenged. Users who
enter an incorrect name or password are returned to a screen requesting a name/password combination to
access the Main Menu.
To set up user accounts, in the System Configuration screen select Security and press Return. The Security
Options screen appears.
