Configuring Users

level

The access that a user is allowed:

z

Admin—The admin level user has total access to the IOLAN. You can create more
than one admin user account but we recommend that you only have one. They can

monitor and configure the IOLAN.

z

Normal—The Normal level user has limited access to the IOLAN. Limited CLI
commands and Menu access are available with the ability to configure the user’s

own configuration settings.

z

Restricted—The Restricted level user can only access predefined sessions or
access the Easy Port Access menu.

z

Menu—The menu level user will only be able to access predefined session or

access the Easy Port Access menu. The Easy Port Access allows the user to
connect to the accessible line without disconnecting their initial connection to the

IOLAN. Does not have any access to CLI commands.

password

The password the user will need to enter to login to the IOLAN. This case-sensitive

field accepts a maximum of 16 characters.

line-access

Specifies the user access rights to each IOLAN device line. Options are:

z

Read/Write—Users are given read and write access to the line.

z

Read In—Users are given access to read only outbound data, data that is going

from the IOLAN to the device.

The

on|off

option is only for 1-port models. You can disable line access in 2-port +

models by specifying

0

(zero).

service

The type of service that the user will use.

sess-timer

The amount of time, in seconds, that the

Session Timer

will run. Use this timer to

forcibly close a user’s session (connection). When the

Session Timer

expires, the

IOLAN will end the connection. The default value is

0

(zero), meaning that the session

timer will not expire (the session is open permanently, or until the user logs out). The
maximum value is 4294967

seconds. The

User Session Timer

will override the

Line

Session Timer

, with the exception of reverse Telnet sessions.

port

When the

User Service

is

Telnet

, this is the target port number. The default value will

change based on the type of

Service

selected; the most common known port numbers

are used as the default values.
