Adding Users to the Internal Database
You can create entries in an internal database that can be used to authenticate users. The internal
database contains a list of users along with the password for each user. When you configure the
WFS709TP as the primary server, user information in incoming authentication requests is checked
against the internal database.
To add a user to the internal database:
1. Collect the following information required for internal database entries (Table 6-2).
Note: When you configure a server, you can set the VLAN for users based on
attributes returned for the user during authentication. These values take
precedence over the default VLAN configured for the user. See “Configuring
Authentication Timers” on page 6-4 for more information.
