# Access management

Initially, on the server there is only one account ( admin) which is given the Administrator role. You can change its username and password in the address book. This account cannot be deleted.

# Roles

TrueConf MCU supports a multi-user administration system:

  • Administrator — by default, has all the rights to manage the server

  • Operator — schedules and holds conferences, creates user accounts. An operator does not have access to server settings and user roles.

To configure roles, go to Administration → Roles. When you select a role, you will see a card with the main information about this role:

  • Role name

  • Role description

  • The list of users assigned to this role.

  2. Click the Add button.

  3. Select users in the list and click the Add button.

In the Security section, you can configure:

  • The minimum number of characters for user passwords on the TrueConf MCU server control panel.

  • Password requirements for user accounts can be configured to include numbers, lowercase and uppercase letters, and special characters.

  • Prohibit using the account name in the password.

  • Set the password expiration period, after which the password must be changed.

  • Account lockout after failed login attempts.

  • Blocking connection to a conference after entering an incorrect PIN code.
