# This field is a sequential value, and it is not associated with a specific entry.
User Type These are the kinds of user account the ZyWALL supports.
• admin - this user can look at and change the configuration of the
ZyWALL
• limited-admin - this user can look at the configuration of the ZyWALL
but not to change it
• user - this user has access to the ZyWALL’s services but cannot look at
the configuration
• guest - this user has access to the ZyWALL’s services but cannot look at
the configuration
• ext-user - this user account is maintained in a remote server, such as
RADIUS or LDAP. See Ext-User Accounts on page 372 for more
information about this type.
• ext-group-user - this user account is maintained in a remote server,
such as RADIUS or LDAP. See Ext-Group-User Accounts on page 372 for
more information about this type.
Lease Time This is the default lease time in minutes for each type of user account. It
defines the number of minutes the user has to renew the current session
before the user is logged out.
Admin users renew the session every time the main screen refreshes in the
Web Configurator. Access users can renew the session by clicking the
Renew button on their screen. If you allow access users to renew time
automatically (see Section 27.4 on page 378), the users can select this
check box on their screen as well. In this case, the session is automatically
renewed before the lease time expires.
Reauthentication Time This is the default reauthentication time in minutes for each type of user
account. It defines the number of minutes the user can be logged into the
ZyWALL in one session before having to log in again. Unlike Lease Time,
the user has no opportunity to renew the session without logging out.
Miscellaneous Settings
Allow renewing lease time
automatically
Select this check box if access users can renew lease time automatically, as
well as manually, simply by selecting the Updating lease time
automatically check box on their screen.
Enable user idle detection This is applicable for access users.
Select this check box if you want the ZyWALL to monitor how long each
access user is logged in and idle (in other words, there is no traffic for this
access user). The ZyWALL automatically logs out the access user once the
User idle timeout has been reached.
User idle timeout This is applicable for access users.
This field is effective when Enable user idle detection is checked. Type the
number of minutes each access user can be logged in and idle before the
ZyWALL automatically logs out the access user.

simultaneous logons for

different IP addresses.

checked. Type the maximum number of simultaneous logins by each admin
user.
Limit the number of
simultaneous logons for

users can login as many times as they want as long as they use different IP
addresses.
