Adding Administrator Accounts

You can create additional administrator accounts if more than one person is responsible for managing policy and you want each person to have individual login credentials. Only the “primary” administrator-whose default name of admin cannot be changed-can create, modify, and delete secondary administrator accounts.

Before creating administrator accounts it is important to define the authentication server first to authenticate the administrator accounts. See Adding Authentication Server.

By default, the preconfigured roles include the ability to view all forms of session data and to terminate sessions. See Viewing User Sessions and Ending User Sessions for more information.
