## LNbits is a free and open-source lightning-network wallet manager
LNbits is an accounting system rather than a node manager, and as such, the superuser or admin users do not have the ability to manage channels within the system.
Channels are managed by the Lightning Network node, such as LND or c-lightning, that is connected to the LNbits system. LNbits acts as an interface between the user and the Lightning node, providing a simple, user-friendly way to manage and interact with the payment network.
Therefore, channel management is the domain of the Lightning node that is connected to LNbits, not the LNbits system itself. Superuser or admin users in the LNbits system are responsible for managing the overall configuration of the system, such as user accounts, wallet settings, and plugins.
