Configuring user accounts Adding users You can create either a general user that can access the WBI (SMU), CLI, FTP or SMI-S interfaces, or an SNMPv3 user that can access the MIB or receive trap notifications. SNMPv3 user accounts support SNMPv3 security features such as authentication and encryption. To add a general user 1. In the Configuration View panel, right-click the system and select Configuration > Users > Add New User. 2. In the main panel, set the options: • User Name. A user name is case sensitive; cannot already exist in the system; cannot include a comma, double quote, angle bracket, backslash, or space; and can have a maximum of 29 bytes. • Password. A password is case sensitive and must contain 8-32 characters. A password cannot contain the following characters: angle brackets, backslash, comma, double quote, single quote, or space. If the password contains only printable ASCII characters then it must contain at least one uppercase character, one lowercase character, and one non-alphabetic character. • Select Standard User. • User Roles. Select Monitor to let the user view system settings, or Manage to let the user view and change system settings. You cannot change the roles of user manage. • User Type. Select an option to identify the user's experience level: Standard, Advanced, or Diagnostic. This option is informational only and does not affect access to commands. • WBI Access. Allows access to the web-based management interface. • CLI Access. Allows access to the command-line management interface. • FTP Access. Allows access to the FTP interface, which can be used instead of the WBI to install firmware updates and download logs. • SMI-S Access. Allows access to the SMI-S interface, used for management of the system through your network. • Base Preference. Select the base for entry and display of storage-space sizes, either Base 10 or Base 2. In base 2, sizes are shown as powers of 2, using 1024 as a divisor for each magnitude. In base 10, sizes are shown as powers of 10, using 1000 as a divisor for each magnitude. Operating systems usually show volume size in base 2. Disk drives usually show size in base 10. Memory (RAM and ROM) size is always shown in base 2. • Precision Preference. Select the number of decimal places (1-10) for display of storage-space sizes. • Unit Preference. Select a unit for display of storage-space sizes: Auto, TB, GB, MB. The Auto option lets the system determine the proper unit for a size. Based on the precision setting, if the selected unit is too large to meaningfully display a size, the system uses a smaller unit for that size. For example, if the unit is set to TB, precision is set to 1, and base is set to 10, the size 0.11709 TB is shown as 117.1 GB. The default is Auto. • Temperature Preference. Specifies the scale to use for temperature values: Celsius or Fahrenheit. • Auto Sign Out (minutes). Select the amount of time that the user's session can be idle before the user is automatically signed out (2-720 minutes). The default is 30 minutes. • Locale. The user's preferred display language, which overrides the system's default display language. Installed language sets include Chinese-Simplified, Chinese-Traditional, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish. 3. Click Add User. To add an SNMPv3 user 1. In the Configuration View panel, right-click the system and select Configuration > Users > Add New User. 2. In the main panel, set the options: • User Name. A user name is case sensitive; cannot already exist in the system; cannot include a comma, double quote, angle bracket, backslash, or space; and can have a maximum of 29 bytes.
