Capability Settings
- Write -- Allows the specified user to change system
settings. When you assign Write capability to a user, the user
also automatically receives Admin capability.
- SNMP -- Designates the specified username as an SNMP
community name. The user uses this SNMP community name to perform
SNMP operations. SNMP operations performed by the user are restricted
according to the user's assigned capabilities.
Note -- The User Manager does not have to be enabled
for SNMP communities to operate correctly.
- Ident -- Allows the specified user to change the access
point's identity settings (MAC address, IP address, and SSID).
When you assign Ident capability to a user, the user also automatically
receives Write and Admin capabilities.
- Firmware -- Allows the specified user to update the
access point's firmware. When you assign Firmware capability to
a user, the user also automatically receives Write and Admin capabilities.
- Admin -- Allows the specified user to view all sensitive
system screens and, with write capability, to make changes to
the system.
