Manage User Accounts and Access Levels

How to Use This Chapter

This chapter describes how to configure user access levels to different information
on the module.

By assigning user accounts with different access levels, you can manage which
users have access to view network configuration or have access to view and change
data views.

Several pages on the MicroLogix 1100 controller, such as diagnostics pages and
data views pages, have default access protection. Before accessing these pages, you
must authenticate your access by entering a user name and password. The module
displays the log-in box when you access these web pages.

The default user name is administrator with password 'ml1100' or guest with
password 'guest'

.

User Accounts and
Privilege Classes

The MicroLogix 1100 controller supports multiple user accounts, each with a
user name and password. Each user account is configured for one of these access
levels:

• Administrator (all access)
• Write (read/write access only)
• Read (read access only)

The access level determines which web pages the user can access. You configure
access limits for individual web pages.

Once authenticated, you do not have to re-enter a user name or
password when accessing subsequent pages. You must close
your browser to log out.

IMPORTANT

It is strongly recommended that you change the password for
the default Administrator account.
