2.3 WEBVIEW SECURITY
WebView security is administered with the use of SNMP community name strings and is limited
to two access levels:
• Read-Only: Allows users to view appropriate content available in WebView, but does not allow
them to modify any information.
• Read-Write: Allows users access to full administrative privileges.
After the user enters the appropriate URL, the WebView server prompts for a User name and
Password. Appropriate entries on this login screen allow access to the WebView device.
NOTE: By default, the User name is set up for Read-Write (rw) access. This permits
read-write access to all modifiable parameters. The default password is set to blank. For
information on setting a new Password, refer to Section 3.7.
