***NOTE – If installing software fresh, ensure it matches this edition (Net2 Lite) as shown below and you don’t install the server version as this will install a SQL database and could confuse the already active Net2 server (BRA-PAX-01)***
Once you open Net2 Access Control, the following screen will appear
BRA-PAX-01 usually gets detected automatically and you can double click but if not, manually type out the hostname (as shown)
Press OK and type in the username and password. This is listed in KeePass/asset register. There’s currently only one account (System Engineer) but no reason an additional user cant be created.
The following screen will appear. Select ‘New User’
The following screen will appear
Fill out as much info as possible but the ‘main’ properties needed are First Name, Surname, Department And Access Level. Most operations staff will come under ‘Biztravel’. IT and Management however have their own access groups.
Access Levels can be found here
If unsure what access level is needed for a user, check another user of similar role.
When you’ve typed out all needed info, press ‘Add User’ for user to be created.
