# Managing user roles

In the Role management section you can add, edit, or remove user roles. If multiple roles are assigned to a user, these roles collectively specify the rights for the user.

To manage users and roles, you must be logged-on as a superuser. You can use the username and password that you specified when logging on to Smart AMS Config for the first time, because the first user created in Smart AMS Config is automatically assigned the Superuser role.

- Go to the Smart AMS Config address in your web browser by using the Open Smart AMS Config UI shortcut on the Desktop or on the Windows Start menu.
  Sample address: http://localhost:6395. Make sure to replace localhost with the actual IP address of the computer Smart AMS Config is running on.

- To switch to the Role management section, click in the Navigation Panel on the left of the page. On mobile devices with a smaller screen, click your username in the upper right corner of the page, and then select Role management.
