Identity-based user accounts
•
When identity-based user accounts are configured, a security officer can define from one to four user
accounts, each of which may have one of the four possible roles:
•
ADMINISTRATOR, who has full read and write permissions. This is the level of the root and admin users, as
well as any other administrator accounts that one of them creates.
•
INSTALLER, who has permissions identical to those of ADMINISTRATOR except that the installer cannot add or
delete users or change the password of any other user.
•
TECHNICIAN, who has permissions to modify basic radio parameters and view informational web pages
•
GUEST, who has no write permissions and only a limited view of General Status tab
•
Admin, Installer and Tech accounts can be configured as READ-ONLY. This will allow the account to only see
the items.
See Managing module access by passwords for detailed information on account permissions.
Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS)
The PMP 450 platform system includes support for RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) protocol
functionality including:
•
Authentication: Allows only known SMs onto the network (blocking “rogue” SMs), and can be configured to
ensure SMs are connecting to a known network (preventing SMs from connecting to “rogue” APs). RADIUS
authentication is used for SMs, but not used for APs.
