CHAPTER 28
Account
An account is a user with permissions inherited from the associated group. “Root” is the
predefined administrator belonging to the Super group. Only “root” or any accounts
belonging to Super group can do everything including managing the Vantage CNM system.
Custom administrators have no predefined permissions.
Administrators should periodically change their passwords. The “root” Administrator can also
enforce periodic Administrator password changes in the Users Change Password Period
field in the CNM System Setting > User Access screen.
28.1 “Root” Administrator
The default system name (and password) when you first log in is “root”. This is a default
system Administrator account, which cannot be deleted by anyone from the system. root’s
details are viewable by others, but not editable.
1 Only one root administrator can exist.
2 Only root can change his/her own personal information except for UID (User
Identification).
3 Only “root” can see all other Administrators. Other Administrators can only see
Administrators within their domain.
28.2 “Super” Administrators
“Super” Administrators are Administrators created using the “Super” User Group. They are
the next most powerful type Administrator next to “root”.
1 Super users have all permissions except CNM System Setting.
2 Super permissions are pre-defined in Vantage CNM and are not editable by Vantage
CNM Administrators.
3 A “super” Administrator cannot edit any Vantage CNM system settings, but can view
(read only) Vantage CNM system status and Vantage CNM logs (but cannot purge or
change log options).
4 “Super” Administrators at same management level can't disassociate each other from
that management level.
