Configuring User Accounts
You configure user accounts on the JCS management module to control
access to the module. The JCS1200 platform supports the following
types of security roles for user accounts:
- Supervisor—This role has full read and write access
to the JCS1200 platform. Users can configure the JCS management module,
the JCS switch module, and Routing Engines (blades) on the JCS1200
platform. You must configure at least one user to have a Supervisor
role.
- Operator—This role has read-only access to the JCS
platform. Users can view the configuration of the JCS management module,
the JCS switch module, and the JCS Routing Engines. They can monitor
JCS operations, but they cannot change the JCS configuration
You can add up to 12 users to the JCS management module. Each
user you add must be assigned a unique number (1 through 12).
To configure user accounts:
- Log in to the JCS management module.
- Use the env command to set JCS management module
1 (mm[1]) as the configuration target. For example:
- Use the users command to configure user accounts. For example:
system:mm[1]> users -2 —n chang —p
SPASS1 —a super
system:mm[1]> users —3 —n markham
—p OPASS1 —a operator
In these examples, User 2 is configured with a username (chang) and a password (SPASS1). User 2 has Supervisor access (full read/write). User 3 is configured with a username (markham) and a password (OPASS1). User 2 has Operator access (read-only).
