Users

The Users object is a child of the Element Management System object and a child of the MetaSwitch object. There is a single instance of the Users object below the Element Management System object and one instance of the Users object below each instance of the MetaSwitch object. (Note that there is only a single Element Management System object but there may be multiple MetaSwitch objects). Therefore, there is a Users object for the EMS Server and each physical VP3000 chassis in your installation.

The Users object groups the types of users that have access to information on the EMS Server (if the parent object is the Element Management System object) or the VP3000 (if the parent object is a MetaSwitch object).

There are three types of users:

Only EMS Users and Craft Users may access information on the EMS Server. Therefore the Users object that is the child of the Element Management System object has two child objects; EMS Users and Craft Users.

Only Billing Users and Craft Users may access information on a VP3000. Therefore, a Users object that is the child of a MetaSwitch object has two child objects; Billing Users and Craft Users.

The Users object does not have any fields or pushbuttons, and you cannot configure or manage it. It exists simply as a way of grouping the EMS Users, Billing Users and Craft Users objects.
