before the ZyWALL routes traffic for them.

•The Group screen (see Section 35.3 on page 598) provides a summary of all user groups.
In addition, this screen allows you to add, edit, and remove user groups. User groups may
consist of access users and other user groups. You cannot put admin users in user groups
•The Setting screen (see Section 35.4 on page 599) controls default settings, login settings,
