Authentication groups
Authentication groups are used to assign access rights to Connect EZ users. Three types of access rights can be assigned:
- Admin access: Users with Admin access can be configured to have either:
- The ability to manage the Connect EZ device by using the WebUI or the Admin CLI.
- Read-only access to the WebUI and Admin CLI.
- Shell access: Users with Shell access have the ability to access the shell when logging into the Connect EZ via ssh or the serial console.
Shell access is not available if the Allow shell parameter has been disabled. See Disable shell access for more information about the Allow shell parameter.
- Serial access: Users with Serial access have the ability to log into the Connect EZ device by using the serial console.
Preconfigured authentication groups
The Connect EZ device has two preconfigured authentication groups:
- The admin group is configured by default to have full Admin access.
- The serial group is configured by default to have Serial access.
The preconfigured authentication groups cannot be deleted, but the access rights defined for the group are configurable.
