Managing Accounts and Users
With the MongoDB module, the system supports several features for managing accounts and users. The following extensions let you set up the system to manage different types of users:
Supported User Roles
The first time you connect the simulator to the database, the system creates an Administrator account by default.
Default Administrator Account Information | |
---|---|
Account type | Administrator |
Privileges |
|
Default user name | admin |
Default password | admin |
Important:Â You must change the default password when you log into the system for the first time. The default password is publicly available and your system cannot be secure until you change it.
By default, the system supports the following user roles:
User Role | Permissions |
---|---|
Administrator | Responsible for setting up the system for users with Instructors and Student accounts. The Administrator should add at least one Instructor account, and can customize scoring and report settings. |
Instructor | Responsible for facilitating sessions on the simulator. Users with Instructor accounts can add Student accounts and group them into classes. |
Student | Uses the simulator to complete simulation sessions and operate equipment in the simulation. The system scores performance and records metrics associated with each Student account. |
Guest | Can start sessions on the simulator and use controls anonymously. The system does not record scores or metrics for Guest sessions. This role is useful for demonstration sessions. |
