NetLinx Security within the Web Server
52
NI-3101-SIG Signature Series NetLinx Integrated Controller
The following graphic illustrates the Ports which can be enabled for the validation of rights by
using a valid username and password. When one of the above options is enabled, the Master
then requires the entry of a valid username and password to validate rights for that action and
then grant or deny access.
Setting the system security options for a NetLinx Master
This page simply toggles the requirement of a user to enter a valid username and password before
gaining access to a particular feature. For every action, the Master validates whether a username and
password are required and whether the user has sufficient rights. Refer to the
Security - Group Level
Security page
section on page 54 for more information on the assignment of the Group/User rights. For
example, if the user were attempting to modify the configuration parameters of the Master, their
username and password must be associated with a profile which was previously granted Configuration
Access privileges within the web server. If they their profile didn’t have enough rights to accomplish
their action an
"Insufficient Rights..."
message appears on top of the active page.
