## What super admin unlocks
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The same WHP panel you'd use on a customer account scales up: customers with **super admin** access also see server-wide pages for managing services, firewall rules, monitoring policy, and users. The customer-facing sections (Sites, Domains, Email, etc.) work the same way; the admin sections sit alongside them, gated to admins.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Today, super admin is most commonly handed to customers running a [Virtual Dedicated Server](https://anhonesthost.com/vds) — they get full server control as part of the plan.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## What's in this section
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- **[Server settings & services](/whp/admin/server-settings/)** — restart services, manage modules and runtimes, edit server-wide configuration.
|
||
|
|
- **[Coraza WAF rules](/whp/admin/coraza-waf/)** — view, tune, and tune out web-application-firewall rules across all your sites.
|
||
|
|
- **[Site Monitoring rules](/whp/admin/site-monitoring/)** — manage the rules that drive Site Monitoring alerts.
|
||
|
|
- **[Users & delegated access](/whp/admin/user-management/)** — create sub-users, delegate panel access, manage SFTP/SSH users.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Things to know before you change server-wide settings
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- **One change can affect every site on the server.** Where customer-side pages scope changes to one site, admin pages typically scope to the whole server.
|
||
|
|
- **Service restarts are visible to live traffic.** Restart Apache or PHP-FPM during a quiet window when possible.
|
||
|
|
- **Backups still apply.** Server-level changes don't bypass the [backups](/whp/how-to/backups/) you have configured; you can roll back the data side, but service-config changes you made by hand aren't snapshotted unless you back up `/etc` somewhere on your own.
