Description

Username

Sets the username for a user. The username cannot include two or more successive
spaces and the signs mentioned on the page.

Access Level

Sets the access level for a user. Users of different levels can perform different operations.

Web user levels, from low to high, are visitor, monitor, configure, and management.

Visitor: Users of visitor level can only use the network diagnostic tool ping. They can
neither access the device data nor configure the device.

Monitor: Users of this level can only access the device data but cannot configure the
device.

Configure: Users of this level can access data on the device and configure the device,
but they cannot upgrade the host software, add/delete/browse users, modify the
passwords of other users, or restore the application file.

Management: Users of this level can perform any operations on the device.

Password

Sets the password for a user

When the password mode is Simple, the input password is in plain text.

When the password mode is Cipher, the input password is either in plain text or
cipher text with a length of 24 or 88. In this case, the input plain password with the
length smaller than or equal to 16 will be converted to a cipher password with a length
of 24; the input plain password with a length greater than 16 but smaller than 63 will
be converted to a cipher password with a length of 88. When the length of the input
password is 24, if the system can decrypt the password, it considers the password as
a ciphertext password; if not, the system considers the password as a plaintext
password. When the length of the input password is 88, if the system can decrypt the
password, it considers the password as a ciphertext password; if not, the system
prompts that the password is invalid.

Confirm Password

Inputs the same password again. Otherwise, the system prompts that the two passwords
input are not consistent when you apply the configuration.
