Enabling or Disabling a User Account

The user interface automatically disables a user account after five consecutive failed login attempts. The administrative user can also manually disable a user account to prevent a user from logging on to the system. If a user account is disabled, the user is unable to log in until an administrative user manually enables the account.

Use this procedure to enable or disable a user account:

  1. Click Administration, and then Access Control, and then Users.
  2. Select a Username from the listing.
  3. Click Edit.
  4. Click the Account Enabled checkbox to enable/disable the account. A check mark indicates that the account is enabled.
  5. Click OK.
    The account is enabled/disabled as selected.
