Set Local User Sharing - Multitech MultiAccess MA220 User Manual

Set Local User Sharing

Local user sharing must be set up per unit before local user data bases can be synchronized. When
MultiAccess local users are synchronized, all data bases contain the same user crentials except for the
administrator accounts. One MultiAccess unit (the Primary unit) holds the master list that is transmitted
(using the Synchronize Phonebooks command) to other MultiAccess units on the network (Copy units).
MultiAccess units can operate on the same network, but have independent local user data bases, in
which case they are designated Independent.
Designating one MultiAccess as the master local user data base. In the main Device Manager
screen, right-click on the unit to be designated as master, scroll to Set local user Sharing, and select
Primary.
Designating all other MultiAccess units participating in local user sharing as Copy units. In the main
Device Manager screen, right-click on each unit to share the master local user data base, and select
Copy.
Designating a MultiAccess as independent. In the main Device Manager screen, right-click on each
unit to be designated as independent, scroll to Set local user Sharing, and select Independent.
