Overview
The Hotwire Termination Unit provides several methods of limiting user access to
the ATI through option settings. You can:
Enable the Telnet Login Required option.
Limit the access by setting a Session Access Level option of Operator for the
Telnet Session.
Disable the access with the Telnet Session option.
See
Table A-5, Telnet Session Options,
in Appendix A,
Configuration Options
,
ATI Access Levels
The unit has two access levels: Administrator and Operator. The access level
determines what functions are accessible, as shown in
Table 7-1, Access Levels
.
Access levels can be applied to Login IDs and Telnet sessions. When access is
through Telnet and a login is required for Telnet, the effective access level is the
more restrictive of the Telnet session access level or the login access level (see
Table A-5, Telnet Session Options,
in Appendix A,
Configuration Options
).
When an access level of Operator is applied to Telnet sessions, a Login ID
with Administrator authority is effectively reduced to Operator. It is no longer
possible to change configuration options, and full access can be restored only by
reloading factory defaults. (See
Restoring Access to the User Interface
in
Chapter 3,
Initial Startup and Configuration
.)
