Access rights and levels

Most CCM commands require the user to have access rights to use the

commands. The access rights for each CCM command are listed in Chapter 4.

The following table describes the access rights a user may be given.

Access Rights

Access Right

Description

PCON

The Port Confi guration access right should be given to users who
must modify port settings. Grant PCON access rights only to users
who need to issue the Port Set command.

SCON

The Server Confi guration access right should be given to users
who must change the CCM confi gurations, including setting the
IP address and updating the CCM program load in FLASH. Grant
SCON access only to users who need to administer the CCM.

SMON

The Server Monitor access right should be given to users who need
to view CCM status and monitor serial port activity. Grant SMON
access only to users who need to assist other users in accessing
attached serial devices.

USER

The User access right should be given to users who need to modify

the user database. Grant USER access only to users who must add,
change or delete user accounts. At least one user must have USER
access rights; otherwise, the user database cannot be changed.

BREAK

The Break access right allows users to send a serial break sequence
to the attached serial device. On certain devices, this sequence has
a special meaning. Grant BREAK access only to users who need to
use the Port Break command.

P

The Port access right gives users access to one or more serial ports.
This confers the right to access that serial port and connect to the
attached serial device. You may grant Port access rights to specifi c
ports (Pn), a range of ports (Px-y) or all ports (PALL).

The Admin user is preconfigured in the user database with all access rights.

Access levels

When you specify a user’s access rights, you may either specify the

individual rights or you may use a shortcut that specifies an access level. The

APPLIANCEADMIN and ADMIN levels (which are used in AVWorks in lieu

of individual specifications other than port access rights) are equivalent to the

following individual specifications:

The APPLIANCEADMIN level is equivalent to PALL, USER, SCON, SMON,
PCON and BREAK.

The ADMIN level is equivalent to PALL, USER, SMON, PCON and BREAK.
