User Rights Management

The User Rights Management service sets restrictions on the GUI access for various users, permits or denies the access to certain Web GUI
configuration pages and creates multilevel user management of the Quadro. The feature is useful to the ISPs in order to set the restrictions for
certain customers to manage the Quadro's configuration.
Two levels of Quadro GUI administration are available:
•
Administrator – this is the main administrator's account. The administrator can configure to have the factory reset safe the default
password or choose not to. The administrator has access to all Web GUI pages and no one else has configuration permission to adjust
this account. The administrator is responsible for granting access to all other user groups.
•
Local Administrator – this is a common (sub-) administrator's account. The password is not factory reset safe. Local Administrator can
have permission to adjust each GUI page.
•
Extension – this account refers to all extensions created on the Quadro. The password for default extensions is not factory reset safe
but is contained in the backed up configuration. Permissions for an extension to access each GUI page can be adjusted here.
The User Rights Management page consists of two pages. The Users page is used to manage the available users on the Quadro. The Roles page
is used to assign the corresponding permissions to the users.
The Users page contains a table where the Administrator and
Local Administrator users are listed. This page allows them to
modify the passwords of available users in the table and to
manage the Local Administrator's account. The following
functional buttons are available on this page:
The Change Password functional button is used to change
the password of the Administrator and Local Administrator
user's account. Select one of the available users in the table
by toggling the corresponding checkbox and press Change
Password to open the corresponding page.
The Change Password page is used to change the user's
password. It offers the following components:
The Old Password text field is only present when
modifying the Administrator account password and requires
the current password of the Administrator. An error
message prevents entering the wrong password.
The New Password text field requires a new password for
the Administrator or Local Administrator. Reentering the
new password in the Confirm New Password text field will
confirm the new password.
The password can consist of numerical values only. Up to
20 digits are allowed. A corresponding warning appears if
any other symbols are inserted.
The Store password in persistent area (Factory reset
save) checkbox is only present when modifying the
Administrator's account password and is used to save the
Administrator's password in the factory reset safe place.
Attention: Be EXTREMELY careful when enabling this
checkbox. When it is done, the Administrator's password
cannot be retrieved even after a factory reset. In this case,
if the Administrator's password has been forgotten, the
Quadro will be considered broken. Please contact Epygi
Technical Support Center for replacing the device.
The Enable User and Disabled User functional buttons are used to enable or disable the Local Administrator's account.
Please Note: The Administrator's account cannot be disabled.
