dropping a connection to that port. When a Port Set/Add time-out value is omitted or set to zero, the
port will use the value specified in the Server CLI command. To completely disable port time-outs,
the Server CLI time-out and the Port Set/Add time-out values must both be zero.

Managing User Accounts

The CCM user database can store information for up to 64 user accounts.
To add a user:
Issue a User Add command.
USER <username> ADD [PASSWORD=<pwd>] [SSHKEY=<keyfile>] [FTPIP=<ftpadd>]
[KEY=<sshkey>] [ACCESS=<access>] [GROUP=<group>] [PREEMPT=1|2|3|4]
You must specify a username. You must also specify a password or SSH user key information, or
you may specify both. You may also include an access level/access rights and group names. The
Preempt parameter is valid only when the CCM appliance is Flashed for DS operation.
For more information, see Using SSH on page 24, Access levels and rights on page 33, User Add
command on page 112 and Managing groups on page 18.
To change a user's configuration information:
Issue a User Set command.
USER <username> SET [PASSWORD=<pwd>] [SSHKEY=<keyfile>] [FTPIP=<ftpadd>]
[KEY=<sshkey>] [ACCESS=<access>] [GROUP=<group>] [PREEMPT=1|2|3|4]
You may change your own password at any time. You must have USER access rights to change
another user's password or to change any user's SSH user key information, access rights or
preemption level. The Preempt parameter is valid only when the CCM appliance is Flashed for
DS operation.
To remove an SSH user key or password, specify Key="" or Password="". You cannot remove
both the password and the SSH key from a user's definition; one must remain in the user database.
Also, you cannot remove a user's key or password if that removal would result in no valid users
having USER access rights.
For more information, see Using SSH on page 24, Access levels and rights on page 33, User Set
command on page 114 and Managing groups on page 18.
To delete a user:

USER <username> DELETE
For more information, see User Delete command on page 113.
