ADD SUPERUSER
•
Assign a Superuser Name. It can be up to 19 characters long. It is good practice not to use any
easily-guessed combination such as your birthday.
•
Assign a Password. Keep this password secure. If you lose or forget it, you will not be able to access the
gateway without factory defaulting it, thereby losing all of your configuration information.
•
You can disable Telnet Access. This may be useful for extra security in preventing remote attempts to
access the gateway.
•
Select ADD SUPERUSER and press Return. The Superuser account is now configured.
You will be challenged for this name and password every time you attempt to log into the gateway.
Limited user configuration
The Add Access Name/Password and Show/Change Access Name/Passwords screens allow you to select
which configuration features a limited (non-Superuser) user can access. From the Security Options screen,
select Add Access Name/Password. The Add Access Name/Password screen appears.
