Adding a New User
It is a good idea to define user groups before creating KSX II users
because, when you add a user, you must assign that user to an existing
user group. Refer to Adding a New User Group (on page 114) for more
information.
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. Refer to Security Settings (on page 189) for more
information.
To add a new user:
1. Open the User page by choosing User Management > Add New
User or clicking the Add button 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. If there is a dialback number, type it in the Dialback Number field.
Dialback numbers cannot contain any of the following characters or
the log on will fail when it is attempted:
" double quote
' single quote
; semicolon
$ dollar sign
& and sign
½ pipe symbol
6. Choose the group from the User Group drop-down list. The list
contains all groups you have created in addition to the
system-supplied default groups (<Unknown> (default setting),
Admin, Individual Group).
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, refer to Setting
Permissions for an Individual Group (on page 115).
7. To activate the new user, select the Active checkbox. The default is
activated (enabled).
8. Click OK.
