User Accounts Control Table
Access to the console, whether using the console port or via
Telnet
, is controlled using a user name and
password. Up to three of these user names can be defined. The console interface will not let you delete the
current logged-in user, however, in order to prevent accidentally deleting all of the users with
Administrator
privilege.
Only users with the
Administrator
privilege can delete users.
