Chapter 5: User Management

User Group List

User groups are used with local and remote authentication (via RADIUS

or LDAP/LDAPS). It is a good idea to define user groups before creating

individual users since, when you add a user, you must assign that user

to an existing user group.

The User Group List page displays a list of all user groups, which can be

sorted in ascending or descending order by clicking on the Group Name

column heading. From the User Group List page, you can also add,

modify, or delete user groups.

To list the user groups:

• Choose User Management > User Group List. The User Group List

page opens.

Relationship Between Users and Groups

Users belong to a group and groups have privileges. Organizing the

various users of your KX II-101 into groups saves time by allowing you to

manage permissions for all users in a group at once, instead of

managing permissions on a user-by-user basis.

You may also choose not to associate specific users with groups. In this

case, you can classify the user as “Individual.”

Upon successful authentication, the device uses group information to

determine the user's permissions, such as which server ports are

accessible, whether rebooting the device is allowed, and other features.
