System Security Settings
NOTE:
By default, all System-level security options are disabled, except for Authentication On Server Ports, which requires a login
for access to the web or command line interface.
Additional security configuration options are available via Terminal/Telnet Commands. See Accessing the Security Configuration
Options sections in the NetLinx Programming Guide (available at www.amx.com)for more information.
NOTE:
While the Security page exists on NCITE-813/813A Presentation Systems, the options listed in this chapter are not available
for these devices.
Login Rules
There is no limit to the number of concurrent logins allowed for a single user. This allows for the creation of a single user that is
provided to multiple ICSP devices (touch panels, for example) using the same login to obtain access to the Master. For example,
if you have 50 devices connected to a Master, you do not have to create 50 individual user accounts, with one for each device.
Instead, you only need to create one which all 50 devices use for access.
The first layer of security for the Master is to prompt a user to enter a valid user name and password before gaining access to a
secured feature on the target Master.
Depending on the Security configuration, users may be prompted to enter a valid user name and password before gaining access to
various features of the WebConsole. User access is specified by the administrator in the Role and User Level pages of the Security
section.
