You can use the CISCO15 ID, which has Superuser privileges, to createother ONS 15600 user IDs. For detailed instructions about creating users, refer to the Cisco ONS 15600Procedure Guide.Each ONS 15600 permits up to 500 Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) or TL1 user IDs. A user ID isassigned one of the following security levels:• Superuser—Users can perform all of the functions of the other security levels as well as set names,passwords, and security levels for other users.• Provisioning—Users can access provisioning and maintenance options.• Maintenance—Users can access only the ONS 15600 maintenance options.• Retrieve—Users can retrieve and view CTC information but cannot set or modify parameters.See Table 5-3 on page 5-6 for idle user timeout information for each security level.By default, multiple concurrent user ID sessions are permitted on the node, that is, multiple users canlog into a node using the same user ID. However, you can provision the node to allow only a single loginper user and prevent concurrent logins for all users.5.2 User Privileges and PoliciesThis section lists user privileges for each CTC action and describes the security policies available toSuperusers for provisioning.
