Password	Enter a password for the operator to log in with.
Confirm Password	Confirm the password.
Security Policies	Select one of the following three default 'Security Policies' or select a customized Security Policy you made in the Security Policies page as shown in Customizing Security Policies. ■ Admin can perform any action and provisioning but cannot define new operators. ■ Security admin can perform any action, perform provisioning and define a new operator of any permission level. Only 'Security admin' can make changes to any ARM credentials such as node credentials or ARM Router/Configurator credentials. ■ Monitor (read-only) cannot perform provisioning or apply any actions. They cannot, moreover, view information under Settings > Administration. License, Security, Certificates, Authentication and Credentials information is only available for viewing and editing to the operator with Security Admin or Admin privileges. Access to view this information by the operator whose security level is Monitor is restricted using the REST API as well. Note that a Security Policy defines the operator's Security Level. For more information about Security Policies, see Customizing Security Policies.
Operator Status	Select one of the following options to allow or block the operator from logging in to ARM: ■ Active: Allows the operator to log in to ARM. ■ Blocked: Blocks the operator from logging in to ARM for a specific lockout duration. ■ Permanent Blocked: Permanently blocks access to ARM. This option can't be selected. Note: ■ This field is displayed only if your admin has enabled the Login Security feature. ■ After 5 consecutive failed ARM login attempts, the operator is blocked for 180 minutes (3 hours). You can view the status of an existing operator, by selecting the operator in the list, and then clicking the Edit icon. If the operator is currently blocked, you can (as Security Admin) unblock (release) the operator by selecting Active from the 'Operator Status' drop-down list.
