Creating a login profile Use the Login Profiles table to view, configure, or change individual login profiles. Use the links in the Login ID column to configure individual login profiles. You can define up to 12 unique profiles. Each link in the Login ID column is labeled with the configured login ID of the associated profile. Certain login profiles are shared with the IPMI user IDs, providing a single set of local user accounts (username/password) that work with all of the IMM user interfaces, including IPMI. Rules that pertain to these shared login profiles are described in the following list: v IPMI user ID 1 is always the null user. v IPMI user ID 2 maps to login ID 1, IPMI user ID 3 maps to login ID 2, and so on. v The IMM default user is set to USERID and PASSW0RD (with a zero, not the letter O) for IPMI user ID 2 and login ID 1. For example, if a user is added through IPMI commands, that user information is also available for authentication through the Web, Telnet, SSH, and other interfaces. Conversely, if a user is added on the Web or other interfaces, that user information is available for starting an IPMI session. Because the user accounts are shared with IPMI, certain restrictions are imposed to provide a common ground between the interfaces that use these accounts. The following list describes IMM and IPMI login profile restrictions: v IPMI allows a maximum of 64 user IDs. The IMM IPMI implementation allows only 12 user accounts. v IPMI allows anonymous logins (null user name and null password), but the IMM does not. v IPMI allows multiple user IDs with the same user names, but the IMM does not. v IPMI requests to change the user name from the current name to the same current name return an invalid parameter completion code because the requested user name is already in use. v The maximum IPMI password length for the IMM is 16 bytes. v The following words are restricted and are not available for use as local IMM user names: - immroot - nobody - ldap - lighttpd - sshd - daemon - immftp To configure a login profile, complete the following steps: 1. Log in to the IMM where you want to create a login profile. For more information, see Chapter 2, "Opening and using the IMM Web interface," on page 9. 2.

Creating a login profile
Use the Login Profiles table to view, configure, or change individual login profiles.
Use the links in the Login ID column to configure individual login profiles. You
can define up to 12 unique profiles. Each link in the Login ID column is labeled
with the configured login ID of the associated profile.
Certain login profiles are shared with the IPMI user IDs, providing a single set of
local user accounts (username/password) that work with all of the IMM user
interfaces, including IPMI. Rules that pertain to these shared login profiles are
described in the following list:
v
IPMI user ID 1 is always the null user.
v
IPMI user ID 2 maps to login ID 1, IPMI user ID 3 maps to login ID 2, and so
on.
v
The IMM default user is set to
USERID
and
PASSW0RD
(with a zero, not the letter
O) for IPMI user ID 2 and login ID 1.
For example, if a user is added through IPMI commands, that user information is
also available for authentication through the Web, Telnet, SSH, and other interfaces.
Conversely, if a user is added on the Web or other interfaces, that user information
is available for starting an IPMI session.
Because the user accounts are shared with IPMI, certain restrictions are imposed to
provide a common ground between the interfaces that use these accounts. The
following list describes IMM and IPMI login profile restrictions:
v
IPMI allows a maximum of 64 user IDs. The IMM IPMI implementation allows
only 12 user accounts.
v
IPMI allows anonymous logins (null user name and null password), but the
IMM does not.
v
IPMI allows multiple user IDs with the same user names, but the IMM does not.
v
IPMI requests to change the user name from the current name to the same
current name return an
invalid parameter
completion code because the
requested user name is already in use.
v
The maximum IPMI password length for the IMM is 16 bytes.
v
The following words are restricted and are not available for use as local IMM
user names:
immroot
nobody
ldap
lighttpd
sshd
daemon
immftp
To configure a login profile, complete the following steps:
1.
Log in to the IMM where you want to create a login profile. For more
information, see Chapter 2, “Opening and using the IMM Web interface,” on
page 9.
