Local database user accounts

Local database user accounts

User add, change, and delete operations are subject to the subset rule: an admin with ADlist 0-10
or LFlist 1-10 cannot perform operations on an admin, user, or any role with an ADlist 11-25 or
LFlist 11-128. The user account being changed must have an ADlist or LFlist that is a subset of the
account that is making the change.
In addition to the default administrative and user accounts, Fabric OS supports up to 252
user-defined accounts in each logical switch (domain). These accounts expand your ability to track
account access and audit administrative activities.
