Displaying And Changing Rules Associated With A User
To display and change the rules associated with a user, follow these steps:
1Either click on Users in the Tree pane or if you have created Organizational Units to structure your users, click on the organizational units subfolders until you reach the desired unit holding the user.
2Select the user in the Details pane and
3Select the Network Access tab, a list of rules created with 3Com Network Access Manager and for which you have read permission will be displayed in the window, see Figure 22. The tick box indicates how the rule is to be applied to the user, see Table 8.
Table 8 Rules Tick Box For A User
Tick Box Setting | Meaning |
|
|
Black, not ticked | The rule does not apply to this user |
Black, ticked | The rule is applied to this user |
Grey, ticked | The rule is applied to this user indirectly through the user’s |
| membership of one or more groups that have the rule |
| specifically applied |
|
|
4You can change which of these rules are applied to a user by either ticking or removing the tick from rules that are black. To change a rule that is applied indirectly through a group, see “Displaying And Changing Rules Associated With A Group”.
A user can be associated with multiple rules, however only the highest priority rule associated with the user will be used for the RADIUS authorization.
5Click OK
This completes displaying and changing the rules associated with a user.
DO NOT change rule membership using the Members Of tab.
Creating A New User
To create a new user in the system, you will need to use a tool such as the “Active Directory Users and Computers” administration tool. You cannot create users through 3Com Network Access Manager. Follow the instructions given in the user documentation shipped with Microsoft Active Directory.
