However, as an administrator, you can create additional unique login IDs for users
at your company.
The CiscoWorks Server administrator can set the passwords for admin and guest
users during installation. Contact the CiscoWorks Server administrator if you do
not know the password for admin.
System administrators determine user security levels when users are granted
access to CiscoWorks. When users are granted logins to the CiscoWorks
application, they are assigned one or more roles.
A role is a collection of privileges that dictate the type of system access you have.
A privilege is a task or operation defined within the application. The set of
privileges assigned to you, defines your role and dictates how much and what type
of system access you have.
The user role or combination of roles, dictates which tasks are presented to the
users. Table 3-1 shows the security levels.
