Managing User Accounts

The Users page lists current users and allows you to manage user accounts. To access the Users page, click Configuration on the menu bar, and click the Users tab.

The VisionVideo QCS provides a default user account as follows:

Dialogic recommends that you change the password for this default account after the first login and that you enter the email of an administrative user for future password recovery. In addition, it is recommended that you create a user account for each user of the system.

Following is an example of the Users page from the Configuration menu. It shows the default user and two other users that have been added.
