For more information about Storage Utility or K2 System Configuration application
security, see the K2 SAN Installation and Service Manual.
To support FTP security features, K2 clients have movie and mxfmovie accounts.
When using K2 with NetCentral, keep in mind that NetCentral has its own levels of
security. Grass Valley recommends mapping the NetCentral administrator with the
K2 administrator level. If you are using the Grass Valley Control Point PC, this
mapping is already done for you at the factory, so you can log on to NetCentral as
administrator using the K2 administrator (K2Admin/K2admin) logon. You can also
assign other NetCentral groups to users, as necessary for your site’s security policies.
You need Windows administrator privileges to add or modify a user’s privileges.
For information on mapping a NetCentral administrator to the K2 administrator level,
see the K2 System Guide. For more information on NetCentral security, see the
NetCentral User Guide.
About credentials in SiteConfig
SiteConfig requires administrative privileges on devices in order to perform most of
the network configuration and deployment tasks. If you add a device based on a known
device type, SiteConfig knows the default administrator login and password to use.

The unknown user, like all others who access the K2 system, must have a valid Windows login for the K2
client or the control point PC through which the K2 system is being accessed.
