Configuring Users
level
The access that a user is allowed:
z
Admin—The admin level user has total access to the IOLAN. You can create more 
than one admin user account but we recommend that you only have one. They can 
monitor and configure the IOLAN.
z
Normal—The Normal level user has limited access to the IOLAN. Limited CLI 
commands and Menu access are available with the ability to configure the user’s 
own configuration settings.
z
Restricted—The Restricted level user can only access predefined sessions or 
access the Easy Port Access menu. 
z
Menu—The menu level user will only be able to access predefined session or 
access the Easy Port Access menu. The Easy Port Access allows the user to 
connect to the accessible line without disconnecting their initial connection to the 
IOLAN. Does not have any access to CLI commands.
password
The password the user will need to enter to login to the IOLAN. This case-sensitive 
field accepts a maximum of 16 characters.
line-access
Specifies the user access rights to each IOLAN device line. Options are:
z
Read/Write—Users are given read and write access to the line. 
z
Read In—Users are given access to read only outbound data, data that is going 
from the IOLAN to the device.
The 
on|off
 option is only for 1-port models. You can disable line access in 2-port + 
models by specifying 
0
 (zero).
service
The type of service that the user will use.
sess-timer
The amount of time, in seconds, that the 
Session Timer
 will run. Use this timer to 
forcibly close a user’s session (connection). When the 
Session Timer
 expires, the 
IOLAN will end the connection. The default value is 
0
 (zero), meaning that the session 
timer will not expire (the session is open permanently, or until the user logs out). The 
maximum value is 4294967
 
seconds. The 
User Session Timer
 will override the 
Line 
Session Timer
, with the exception of reverse Telnet sessions.
port
When the 
User Service
 is 
Telnet
, this is the target port number. The default value will 
change based on the type of 
Service
 selected; the most common known port numbers 
are used as the default values.
