CHAPTER 6: Administrator Functions
6. Administrator Functions
This chapter discusses the special On-Screen User Interface (OSUI) functions with
which an administrator can configure and operate the ServSwitch™ Summit
system, including assigning access rights (discussed in more detail in Appendix A).
6.1 The Administration Menu
Administrators can use the Administration Menu to set security classes, maintain
user names and privileges, and manage the system configuration, including
controlling user access to the Summit system and all connected devices. To reach
any of the Administration Menu’s submenus, take the following steps.
NOTE
Administrative user IDs assigned to group 00 (see Appendix A) have
complete access to all of the Administration Menu’s submenus. Other
administrative users have limited access and can’t select the System
Configuration and User Configuration submenus.
1. Log into the system using the admin user name or your own user name if you
have administrator privileges. (The default password for the admin user is
blackbox, all lowercase, but this password should be changed as soon as the
Summit is initially installed.) The Selection Menu will be displayed.
2. Press [F5]. The Administration Menu should appear, as shown in Figure 6-1.
3. Press the corresponding number from 1 through 5, or use the up- and down-
arrow keys to move the highlight to your desired option, then press [Enter].
The rest of this chapter describes the submenus that appear.
