204 IOLAN SDS/SCS/STS/MDC User’s Guide, Version 4.0
Level
Note:
A technique for giving a serially attach user (dial-in or terminal attached), the same menus as
one that is network connected is to do the following:
1. Define the serial port with a Terminal Profile using telnet protocol with a direct
connection to Host IP address 127.0.0.0 (local loop back).
2. When the user connects to that serial port a Telnet session will be established to the
IOLAN and the user will appear to have connected from the network.
The access that a user is allowed.
Data Options:
z Admin—The admin level user has total access to the IOLAN. You can
create more than one admin user account but we recommend that you only
have one. They can monitor and configure the IOLAN. Users configured
with this level can access the unit either via serial Terminal Profile
connection or via a network originated Telnet or SSH connection to the
IOLAN.
z Normal—The Normal level user has limited access to the IOLAN.
Limited CLI commands and Menu access are available with the ability to
configure the user’s own configuration settings. Users configured with this
level can access the unit either via serial Terminal Profile connection or
via a network originated Telnet or SSH connection to the IOLAN.
z Restricted—The Restricted level user can only access predefined sessions
or access the Easy Port Access menu. Users configured with this level will
be restricted to pre-defined sessions or limited CLI commands when
connecting through the serial port via the Terminal Profile. The CLI
commands are limited to those used for initiating a session. If connection
to the IOLAN is done with Telnet or SSH from the network, the user will
be presented with the Easy Port Access menu.
z Menu—The menu level user will only be able to access predefined
session when connecting through a serial port with the Terminal profile or
will be limited to the Easy Port Access menu when connecting from the
network. The Easy Port Access allows the user to connect to the accessible
line without disconnecting their initial connection to the IOLAN. Does not
have any access to CLI commands.
When the Admin user logs into the IOLAN, the prompt ends with a
#, whereas
all other users’ prompts ends with a
$ or £, depending on the character set.
Default: Normal
