User Menu Differences - Motorola Netopia Embedded Software Handbook

User menu differences

Menus reflect the security access level of the user. Consequently, configuration menus will display differing
options based upon the parameters a particular user is allowed to change. Some differences include:
•
Limited users (non-Superusers) do not have access to Easy Setup.
•
All users have access to System Configuration, Quick Menus, and Quick View, but limited users have only
limited access to configuration elements in their descendant menus.
•
Configuration screen elements to which configuration access is forbidden are usually hidden.
•
The Quick Menus screen reflects the security access level of the user. Menus to which configuration
access is forbidden are hidden.
