How to Create a New Administrator Account

Administrator accounts specify which configuration areas and tasks administrative users can access and change on a standalone Barracuda CloudGen Firewall or Barracuda Firewall Control Center on box level. Admin users can log into the system using the credentials specified in their profile and view or edit the services and settings defined in the administrative roles assigned to them.

Note that as of Firmware 10.5.0, the administrator password can contain the blank space character!

Administrative Roles

Users can view or edit settings and services on the Barracuda CloudGen Firewall according to their assigned roles.
