Admin | Security (Account Information)

The Admin user, via the 'Admin | Security' page (Figure 8-12), has the ability to control access to
all base modem HTTP and NP Interface HTTP/HTTPS pages. However, the Admin user does not
have access to the optional TRANSEC Module parameters; this functionality is only available via
the Crypto Officer login provided separately on the TRANSEC Module HTTPS Interface. See
Chapter 10. TRANSEC MODULE HTTPS INTERFACE for further information.
Admin Account Info
The login process requires a name and password as defined by the systems administrator of the
controlling equipment. This name and password is associated to the name and password of an
administrator account. Set the desired Admin User Name and Admin Password for the
administrator account, and then click [Submit] to apply these settings.
Note: The Admin User Name and Password settings are maintained separately from the IP
Interface Security Mode and SSH sections on this page.
IP Interface Security Mode
The desired IP Interface Security Mode can be set to either Low Level Security for HTTP/FTP/
SNMP/Telnet access, or High Level Security for HTTPS/SSH (Secure Shell) access only. Click
[Submit] to apply this setting. More specifically:
When Management Security is set to Low Level Security, the NP Interface can be managed by
non-secure protocols such as HTTP and Telnet.
When Management Security is set to High Level Security, the following restrictions apply:
The NP Interface can ONLY be managed via the secure HTTPS protocol – the the https:// address
prefix must be specified in order to connect to the secure NP HTTPS Interface.
Access via Telnet is not permitted – however, while access to the CLI is not permitted via the Telnet
interface, the CLI is accessible via the SSH interface;
Access to the modem HTTP and FTP server is disabled since non-secure protocols are used.
Management Security can also be changed via the modem front panel:
