Managing User Groups

User groups serve two purposes:

• To determine which system functions the users associated with a group are permitted to

perform

• To determine which ports the users associated with a group are permitted to access.

The DSX is shipped with one user group built in. This is the Admin user group. Users associated
with this group can perform all system functions and access all ports. This group cannot be
modified or deleted.
You can create as many other user groups as necessary.
