2.4 Users and Roles
Roles manage the user permissions in general. Each role defines a set of permissions such as read/write permissions on devices. Each user belongs to exactly one such role, and the role effectively controls the user’s access to those networks and operations. The complete list of configurable permissions can be found in Sec. 7.3, p.232.

In the factory configuration, only the Administrator role is available and there is only one user named ”admin”, with the password set to ”password.” For the increased security, users are highly recommended to change this password. Also, when more than one user will be using netLD, it is recommended that additional roles be created based on their level of experience.
