This topic contains information on working with local user accounts. For information on user accounts that reside on a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server, refer to About LDAP.
There are two types of local user account privilege levels: user and administrative user.
The library comes with a default local administrative user account named "admin". The default password for this account is "password". This account can be modified but not deleted. You cannot modify the name or privilege level of the account, but you can modify the default password. If you misplace the modified password, contact technical support. For contact information, see Contacting Dell.
You can create additional local user and administrative user accounts any time after the initial configuration of the library. For more information on creating local user accounts, see Creating User Accounts.
Local user accounts can be modified at any time by administrative users. For example, you can modify a user privilege level by changing what partitions it can access. For more information on modifying user accounts and changing partition access, see Modifying User Accounts and Changing Partition Access.
A local user account can be deleted when it is no longer needed. For information on how to delete a user account, see Deleting User Accounts.
The library supports 18 local user accounts, including the default admin account. All 18 user accounts (administrative user or user) can be logged into the library at one time from either the operator panel or the Web client interface.

NOTE: If LDAP is enabled, you can log into the library using an existing user account that resides on an LDAP server. See About LDAP for more information about LDAP. |
