Adding and editing administrator accounts
When the DFL-1000 NPG is initially installed, it is configured with a single administrator account with the
user name admin. From this administrator account, you can add and edit administrator accounts. You can
also control the access level of each of these administrator accounts and, optionally, control the IP
address from which the administrator can connect to the DFL-1000 NPG.
There are three administration account access levels:
admin
Has all permissions. Can view, add, edit, and delete administrator accounts. Can view and change the
configuration. The admin user is the only user who can go to System > Status and manually update
firmware, download or upload system settings, restore the DFL-1000 NPG to factory defaults, restart the
DFL-1000 NPG, and shut down the DFL-1000 NPG. There is only one admin-level user.

Adding new administrator accounts
From the admin account, use the following procedure to add new administrator accounts to the DFL-1000
NPG and control their permission levels:
Go to System > Config > Admin .

Type a login name for the administrator account.
The login name must be at least 6 characters long and can contain numbers (0-9), uppercase and
lowercase letters (A-Z, a-z), and the special characters - and _. Other special characters and spaces
are not allowed.
Type and confirm a password for the administrator account.
The password must be at least 6 characters long and can contain numbers (0-9), uppercase and

Optionally type a Trusted Host IP address and netmask for the location from which the administrator
can log into the web-based manager.
If you want the administrator to be able to access the DFL-1000 NPG from any address, set the
trusted host to 0.0.0.0 and the wildcard mask to 255.255.255.255.
To limit the administrator to only be able to access the DFL-1000 NPG from a specific network, set
the trusted host to the address of the network and set the wildcard mask to the netmask for the
network. For example, to limit an administrator to accessing the DFL-1000 NPG from your internal
network, set the trusted host to the address of your internal network (for example, 192.168.1.0) and
set the wildcard mask to 255.255.255.0.
Set the Permission level for the administrator.
Select OK to add the administrator account.
Editing administrator accounts

permission levels.
