2.6 Security Management
The ASG Guard/ASG Guard Plus maintains a database of authorized users (that is, User
Database). Only users listed in the database and who successfully authenticate are allowed
access. Authentication methods include password-oriented methods (Password, Callback, and
Variable Callback) and token methods (ASG Key and Pager).
A Master level user assigns each user when the user’s profile is added to the database. The
access class determines which ports can be addressed and what information can be viewed or
modified within the ASG Guard/ASG Guard Plus.
2.6.1 Access
Classes
Master - Master access permits the user to change all information in ASG Guard/ASG Guard
Plus. The Master user can therefore control when and how alarms are reported, add and delete
users from the user database, change user profiles, modify Action and Event tables, manage
data buffering and access all hosts. The Master level is the highest level of access.
Sysop 2 - A Sysop 2 level user can perform all functions listed above except modifying the user
database. The Sysop 2 level user can access all hosts ports and has access to the file
commands used to manage data buffering, can make changes in how ASG Guard/ASG Guard
Plus responds to alarms, and change the port configuration of the unit.
Sysop 1 - The Sysop 1 level user can view pending alarms, but cannot change it. Data buffering
commands are not available to the Sysop 1 user. The Sysop 1 user can access all hosts.
Host 1 to Host n - The host user only has access to a single host device. The host user cannot
access any of the ASG Guard/ASG Guard Plus functions. n = number of the host user. ASG
Guard can have up to four host users. ASG Guard Plus can have 16 or 28 host users. (To have
28 host users, the ASG Guard Plus must have an expansion board.)
2.6.2 User Database
Each ASG Guard/ASG Guard Plus maintains a User Database, as stated above. The database
consists of a Customer User Table and a Lucent User Table. The Customer User Table contains
users added by a Customer Master User (Cmaster). The Lucent User Table contains users
added by a Lucent Master User (Lmaster). Lucent users provide remote maintenance support for
the ASG Guard/ASG Guard Plus for warranty issues and under Service Agreements. See
Chapter 6 for commands and capabilities associated with the Customer User Table and Lucent
User Table.
