PROVISIONING, or SUPERUSER. See the “20.1 User IDs and Security Levels” section on
page 20-1 for information about the capabilities provided with each level.
Note Each security level has a different idle time. The idle time is the length of time that CTC can
remain idle before the password must be reentered. The defaults are: Retrieve user = unlimited,
Maintenance user = 60 minutes, Provisioning user = 30 minutes, and Superuser = 15 minutes.
To change the idle times, see the “NTP-G88 Modify Users and Change Security” procedure on
