Prior to adding a new user, you should have the following user information readily accessible:

  3. The User Name is the name used for logging into the system.
  4. The Password is the password used to access the system. The password must be verified.
  5. The Email Address is the user's contact email address.
  6. By default, the account is marked as active. You will need to change this if you do not want the account to be active.
  7. Complete the necessary fields under the Contact Information heading. Enter the user's Name, Office Phone Number, and Mobile Phone Number. These fields are not required, but may be beneficial.
  8. Enable the user's permissions under the Job/User Permissions heading. You will need to know what this particular user will be allowed to do in the system.
  9. Restore Configurations allows users to create jobs to restore managed devices to previous configurations.
  10. Restart Devices allows users to create jobs to reboot managed devices.
  11. Push Configurations allows users to create jobs to load configurations on managed devices.
