CMS-6R4 Series - User’s Guide
5.4. Password Functions
The CMS-6R4's password directory allows you to define up to 32 passwords.
These passwords are not only used to protect access to the CMS-6R4 unit, but
are also used to determine the type of commands that each user will be allowed
to invoke, and the ports and switched outlets that each user will be allowed to
control.
Passwords that have access to Supervisor Mode are allowed to change
configuration parameters and may connect to any CMS-6R4 port and switch
any CMS-6R4 outlet. On the other hand, passwords which are denied access
to Supervisor Mode are not allowed to change configuration parameters, and
are restricted to the ports and outlets specifically allowed by that password.
The password directory feature is described in greater detail in Section 5.5.1.1.
Note that once you have defined at least one password that permits access to
Supervisor Mode, the CMS-6R4 will display a password prompt whenever
you attempt to access command mode. Supervisor Level commands are
summarized in Section 10.2 of this User’s Guide.
Notes:
• If you do not define at least one password that permits access
to Supervisor Mode, then Supervisor Level commands will be
available to all ports, and port access and configuration functions
will not be password protected.
• If you wish to restrict users from changing CMS-6R4 configuration
parameters or connecting to restricted ports, you must define at least
one password that permits access to Supervisor Mode as described
in Section 5.5.1.1.
• If the unit is reset to default parameters, all passwords will be
erased, and Supervisor Level commands will be available at all
ports, without password protection.
Note that if you wish to completely deny a given port’s access to Supervisor
Mode (even
with
a Supervisor password), the Port Parameters menus (/P) can
be used to disable the Supervisor Mode at the Network Port and at any RS232
Port except for Port 1 (the System SetUp Port.)
