ECLYPSE Web Interface
User Management
User management is the control of who can access the controller by enforcing the authentication credentials users need to
access the controller. User management can either be managed in Server or Client mode. You can also set the Welcome
page a user will land on when they connect to the controller.
An ECLYPSE controller can manage users through several mechanisms. It can either be in Server mode that provides a
user database to other ECLYPSE controllers and itself, or in Client mode for access to a remote user database.
You can provide appropriate privileges to users depending on the clearance level desired for each role. You can also mod-
ify user properties and customize the user experience by assigning a Welcome page to each user.
Server/Client User Configuration
When you configure an ECLYPSE controller in server mode, you can add new users, select their roles, and choose their
custom Welcome page. This page will be the default page displayed after a user logs in to an ECLYPSE controller.
If you configure an ECLYPSE controller in client mode, you can only choose the Welcome page displayed to a user. Any
other information will be retrieved from the remote server. The Welcome page chosen in client mode has priority over the
one configured in the server.
Adding a User in Server Mode
Adding a user creates a user profile that allows a person to log in to the controller with a username / password combination
and to have access to certain controller software interfaces. These users will have login access to the controller. It is im-
portant to create new user accounts with strong passwords to protect the controller from unauthorized access. See also
