Advanced Settings - Iridium GO! User Manual

Advanced settings

User accounts and user access
Users accounts with Administrator privileges have the ability to modify Firewall and Wi-Fi settings
as well as manage User access. Administrator users (by default "guest" user is an administrator) may
modify these settings either through the Iridium GO! application by pressing the Advanced icon or
through the Iridium GO! Advanced Features portal.
Firewall settings
Iridium GO! has a built-in Firewall system which will allow you to filter outbound traffic for use with
non-optimized applications. You may set this to allow or block all traffic as well as add filtering
4
exceptions.
Wi-Fi settings
By default the Iridium GO! device Wi-Fi connection is set to "open" but can be modified to WPA2 by a
user with administrator privileges through the Advanced icon.
User management
User management provides the administrator with the ability to create additional user accounts.
These new accounts can then be modified by the administrator to limit access to different features
within the Iridium GO! application: make calls, send or receive messages, send Quick GPS or post to
Twitter. By default the "guest" user account is set as an administrator. The "guest" login can be used
concurrently by 5 different users resulting in 5 administrators logged in at the same time. If you wish
to limit access to the administrative settings (Firewall, Wi-Fi, SOS and user management), you may
modify the "guest" account to remove the "administrator" rights.
NOTE: Prior to modifying the "guest" account, please ensure that you have created a new account with administrator privileges.
