Next Step
After completing quick setup on the EMG, you may want to configure other settings. You can use
the web page or the command line interface for configuration.
For information about the web and the command line interfaces, go to
Chapter 5: Web and
Command Line Interfaces
.
To continue configuring the EMG unit, go to
Limiting Sysadmin User Access
For security purposes, full administrative access to the EMG via the default sysadmin local user
account can be limited to only the front console port of the EMG device.
These steps will prevent any local users from logging in, restrict the default sysadmin local user to
the front console port, and allow a user with administrative rights to login, as long as remote
authentication is working.
To configure limited sysadmin user access:
1. Enable the Sysadmin access limited to Console Port option on the Local/Remote Users web
page.
2. Enable a remote authentication method (such as or LDAP) and configure the
remote authentication method to be first in the order of methods used.
3. Create a remote user account with full administrative rights.
4. Uncheck the
Attempt next method on authentication rejection
checkbox on the
Authentication Methods web page.
