Defining Wireless Assistant Administrators and Login Groups

You can define the login user names and passwords for administrators that have access to the Wireless Assistant. You can also assign them to a login group — as full administrators, read-only administrators, or as GuestPortal managers. For each user added, you can define and modify a user ID and password.

  • Full administrators — Users assigned to this login group have full administrator access rights on the controller. Full administrators can manage all aspects of the controller, including GuestPortal user accounts.
  • Read-only administrators — Users assigned to this login group have read-only access rights on the controller, including the GuestPortal user accounts.
  • GuestPortal managers — Users assigned to this login group can only manage GuestPortal user accounts. Any user who logs on to the controller and is assigned to this group can only access the GuestPortal Guest Administration page of the Wireless Assistant.
