Nokia Network Voyager for IPSO 4.0 Reference Guide 289
After you create a new user, go to Role-Based Administration > Assign Role to Users to grant
the user additional access privileges. For more information, see “Role-Based Administration” on
page 293.
Table 14 describes the attributes associated with each user account.
Adding and Deleting Users
In addition to regular users who have access to various features of Network Voyager and the
CLI, you can create SNMP users. SNMP users are visible only in the Manage SNMP Users page
of Network Voyager, they are not displayed on the system User Management pages. For more
information on SNMP users, see “Managing SNMP Users” on page 263.
Note
When you add a user with cluster permissions, the user is not automatically created on the
other nodes of the cluster. To add this user to other nodes of the cluster, you must log in to
each node as a system admin user (cluster admin users do not have RBA access).
