Main Security Menu
The Main Security menu is described below:
Main Security Menu
Command Description
1) Set system security options for
NetLinx Master
This selection will bring up the Security Options Menu
that allows you to change the security options for the
NetLinx Master (refer to the Security Options
Menu section on page 31 for details). These are "global"
options that enable rights given to users and groups. For
instance, if you want to disable Telnet security for all
users, you would simply go to this menu and disable Tel-
net security for the entire master. This would allow any
user, whether they have the rights to Telnet or not. These
options can be thought of as options to turn on security
for different features of the NetLinx Master.
2) Display system security options for
NetLinx Master
This selection will display the current security options for
the NetLinx Master.
3) Add user This selection will prompt you for a user name and pass-
word for a user you would like to create. After the user is
added, you will be taken to the Edit User Menu to setup
the new users rights (see the Edit User Menu section on
page 33 for details).
4) Edit user This selection will prompt you select a user. Once you
have selected the user you want to edit, it will take you to
the Edit User Menu so you can edit the user's rights (see
the Edit User Menu section on page 33 for details).
5) Delete user This selection will prompt you select a user to delete.
6) Show the list of authorized users This selection displays a list of users.
7) Add group This selection will prompt you for a group name fro a
group you would like to create. After the group is added,
you will be taken to the Edit Group Menu to setup the new
users right (see the Edit Group Menu section on page 35
for details).
8) Edit group This selection will prompt you select a group. Once you
have selected the group you want to edit, it will take you to
the Edit Group Menu so you can edit the group's rights
(see the Edit Group Menu section on page 35 for details).
9) Delete group This selection will prompt you select a group to delete. A
group can only be deleted if there are no users assigned
to that group.
10) Show list of authorized groups This selection displays a list of groups.
11) Set Telnet Timeout in seconds This selection allows you to set the time a telnet session
waits for a user to login. When a Telnet client connects to
the NetLinx Master, it is prompted for a user name. If the
client does not enter a users name for the length of time
set in this selection, the session will be closed by the
NetLinx Master.
12) Display Telnet Timeout in seconds This selection allows you to display the time a telnet ses-
sion waits for a user to login.
13) Make changes permanent by saving to
flash
When changes are made to the security settings of the
master, they are initially only changed in RAM and are not
automatically saved permanently into flash. This selection
saved the current security settings into flash. Also, if you
attempt to exit the Main Security Menu and the security
settings have changed but not made permanent, you will
be prompted to save the settings at that time.
