Defining the Security Parameters

Defining the Security Parameters
The TimeProvider supports users at the following four access levels:
None – Anyone with access to a serial or Ethernet port on the TimeProvider can
issue commands set to this access level. If no Security-level users are defined,
then anyone connected to the TimeProvider can issue every command available
User – Users entered into the user list at the User level can issue commands set
at the User access level
Admin – Users entered into the user list at the Admin level can issue commands
set at the Admin access level
Security – Users at this access level can issue every command available
You can edit the commands available at each access level using the
ED-CMD-SECU command. You can display the current access level for each
command by issuing the RTRV-CMD-SECU command. See the TimeProvider TL1
Reference Guide for details on these commands. Record the values you provision
in Table 4-3.
The first person to log into the TimeProvider is automatically assigned the Security
access level (described in
83); this person normally performs the initial provisioning and defines users and
their appropriate access levels.

Managing the User List

Use the procedures in this section to manage the users that are authorized to

Logging In
