USER GUIDE ARENA/ RANGER

In addition, a password for each user must be issued for secure operation of
ARENA.
Finally, for comfortable remote operation, a user can have an Auto-Logon property
assigned that allows logging into the remote site without entering Login name and
password again.
Login, Information Access and
Password Handling When entering a site, you must login with user name and password. After logged in,
you will see all information that you have access to, based on your role. When you
click on items that are unavailable due to your role (e.g. when a service user selects
configuration), you are asked for logging in again.
NOTE: Usually, ARENA will not display items/functions that are not available for
the current user role. However, in graphics there may be links that require
a higher user level (in this case, a login is forced). Also, a login is forced
when you enter a direct link to a page in the browser:
You have not to login again, even when going to another site (e.g. to an ARENA
remote site), as long as on that site a user with the same user name and password
exists.
You can change your own password without invoking the User Administration.
IMPORTANT
It is strongly recommended to delete default users or change the default
password of each role since the password reads the same as the
corresponding role.
Invoke User Administration
1. In the tree, select the site, on which you want to administer users, for example to
create new users.
NOTE: The user administration can only be invoked from users having
privilege level ´service` or higher.
2. Hover the cursor over the Configuration menu icon
and click User in the
configuration menu.
RESULT: The Users List is displayed. Each user is displayed by name, role,
and access type. An empty cell in the Access to column means that
the listed user has access restrictions which can be seen when
clicking on the Edit button. By default, every default user has no
access restrictions as indicated by an asterisk.
You can create new users and edit and delete users.
