Users
Users must be granted user names and passwords to gain access to the
KX II. This information is used to authenticate users attempting to access
your KX II.
Up to 254 users can be created for each user group.
If you are using a tiered configuration in which a base KX II device is
used to access multiple other tiered devices, users will need permission
to access the base device and permissions to access each individual
tiered device (as needed).
When users log on to the base device, each tiered device is queried and
the user can access each target server they have permissions to. See
Configuring and Enabling Tiering (on page 147) for more information
on tiering.
Adding a New User
It is a good idea to define user groups before creating KX II users
because, when you add a user, you must assign that user to an existing
user group. See Adding a New User Group (on page 117).
From the User page, you can add new users, modify user information,
and reactivate users that have been deactivated.
Note: A user name can be deactivated when the number of failed login
attempts has exceeded the maximum login attempts set in the Security
Settings page. See Security Settings (on page 221).
To add a new user:
1. Select User Management > Add New User or click Add on the User
List page.
2. Type a unique name in the Username field, up to 16 characters.
3. Type the person's full name in the Full Name field, up to 64
characters.
4. Type a password in the Password field and retype the password in
the Confirm Password field, up to 64 characters.
5. Choose the group from the User Group drop-down list.
If you do not want to associate this user with an existing User Group,
select Individual Group from the drop-down list. For more information
about permissions for an Individual Group, see Setting Permissions
for an Individual Group (on page 122).
