Adding an Administration Account
Default Administration Account
The VCS has a default administrator account
with full read/write access. This account is
used to log into the VCS via the web UI or the
CLI. The username for this account is admin
(all lower case) and the default password is
TANDBERG (all upper case).
You cannot delete the default administrator
account or change the admin username, but
you should change the password as soon
as possible. Choose a strong password,
particularly if administration over IP is enabled.
Additional Administration Accounts
You can add up to 15 additional administration
accounts with either Read Write access or
Read Only access. These can be used to log in
via the web UI only.
Administration Access Levels
Read Write
Administration accounts with Read Write
access can view and change all conguration
available via the web UI. These accounts have
exactly the same rights as the default admin
user.
Read Only
Administration accounts with Read Only access
can view the current status and conguration of
the VCS, but cannot make any changes. Some
pages, such as the Upgrade page, are blocked
to Read Only accounts.
