How to Manage User Accounts
VAST allows users to apply multiple user accounts to a station with five levels of user roles:
Administrator > Power User > User > Operator > Guest. Each role has different permissions
listed as shown below. Moreover, Administrators have the highest privileges, while Power Users
can only add/edit users as Power Users, Users, Operators, and Guests.
