Configuring user accounts

LO100 supports four accounts types, with varying levels of permissions to view and control features.
For more information on user accounts, see the
accounts are available by default, one of type administrator and one of type operator.
The administrator account enables the user to execute the full set of CLP commands and change
management processor configuration. The default administrator account user name is admin, and
the default password is admin.
The operator account enables the user to execute common commands and functions but restricts
access to specific functions, such as adding and changing user account information and changing
the configuration of the management processor. HP recommends logging in with the operator
account to perform common functions. The default user name is Operator, and the default password
is Operator.
