# Users

The Users menu is where you can create new users, delete, and edit data about existing ones. There are
 two types of account groups - User and Administrator.

The User group account has limited access to many of the settings’ features; however, full access to data
 and sensors is granted. By default, the user Guest in the User group is provided.

The Administrator group account should only be given to those who need features, such as software
\
updates, network reset, threshold settings, etc. By default, the root account in the Administrator group is
 provided. The root account cannot be deleted, nor can its name be changed. The Root account can modify
 other user accounts belonging to Administrator and User groups.

If you would like to reset the base station to root account, and delete all previously created accounts then please proceed with FULL FACTORY RESET. 

{% hint style="info" %}
A full factory reset will erase all stored data and revert all settings to factory ones, so be aware. More information is available in this topic: [Tools](/base-stations/base-stations/web-interface/overview/system/tools.md)
{% endhint %}

Up to 20 accounts can be created (including root).

{% hint style="warning" %}
Change the root user password! The default password is a placeholder that is well known and
 should only be used for initial setup or after resetting to factory defaults.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.aranet.com/base-stations/base-stations/web-interface/overview/system/users.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
