NOTE:
When creating a user name, the default priority is 1, which allows access but not configuration
rights. A priority of 15 must be set to enable access and configuration rights to the Ethernet Switch
Module. Although user names can be assigned privilege level 15 without a password, it is recommended
to always assign a password. If there is no specified password, privileged users can access the Web
interface with any password.
