DLP-G55 Create a New User on Multiple Nodes
Note All nodes where you want to add users must be accessible in network view.
Step 1 From the View menu, choose Go to Network View.
Step 2 Click the Provisioning > Security > Users tabs.
Step 3 In the Users window, click Create.
Step 4 In the Create User dialog box, enter the following:
• Name—Type the user name. The name must be a minimum of six and a maximum of
20 alphanumeric (a-z, A-Z, 0-9) characters. For TL1 compatibility, the user name must
6 to 10 characters.
• Password—Type the user password. The password must be a minimum of six and a maximum of
20 alphanumeric (a-z, A-Z, 0-9) and special (+, #, %) characters, where at least two characters are
non alphabetic and at least one character is a special character. For TL1 compatibility, the password
must be 6 to 10 characters. The password must not contain the user name.
• Confirm Password—Type the password again to confirm it.
• Security Level—Choose a security level for the user: RETRIEVE, MAINTENANCE,
PROVISIONING, or SUPERUSER. Refer to 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 it locks up and 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, refer to the “NTP-G88 Modify Users and
Change Security” procedure on page 10-45.
Step 5 In the Select Applicable Nodes area, deselect any nodes where you do not want to add the user (all
network nodes are selected by default).
Step 6 Click OK.
Step 7 In the User Creation Results dialog box, verify that the user was added to all the nodes chosen in Step 5.
If not, click OK and repeat Steps 2 through 6. If the user was added to all nodes, click OK and continue
with the next step.
Step 8 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
Purpose This task adds a new user to multiple ONS 15454 nodes.
