Authentication, Passwords, and User Roles
The secure protocols that are implemented in the Anybus CompactCom need to authenticate the users. Each user is assigned a role, that defines the user’s access rights. The configuration of the users, their passwords and their roles, is administrated using the internal web interface. Role access rights are configured per protocol in a separate configuration file for each protocol. The table below shows the default role access rights. The configuration can be changed when developing an application.
Role | Description |

operator |
The operator can view the module and network status information, but not set any system configuration. The operator is not granted any access to the security settings. |
