Creating a Named To create a named user:

User

1Access the Create Named User wizard:

a Select the Configuration tool bar option.

b In the Organizer panel, click the plus sign next to the WX switch. c Click the plus sign next to AAA.

d Select Local User Database.

e In the Task List panel, select Named User.

2In the Name box, type the name of the user (1 to 60 alphanumeric characters, with no spaces or tabs).

3In the Password box, type the password for the user (1 to 80 alphanumeric characters, with no spaces or tabs). You must specify a password if you want the password to be encrypted in the configuration file.

4In the User Group list, select a user group to assign the user to, if the group is already configured.

You do not need to assign a user to a user group. If you do select a user group, you only need to specify a password for the user. All other attributes are obtained from the user group.

5To set authorization attributes for the user, click Next and go to step 6.

6In the VLAN Name box, select or type the name of the VLAN that the user belongs to (1 to 16 alphanumeric characters, with no spaces or tabs). The WX switch will authorize the user for that VLAN. For more information on VLANs, see “Viewing and Configuring VLANs” on page 206.

If the user requires administrative access only, you do not need to specify a VLAN.

Otherwise, if you plan to set authorization attributes in another way, such as adding the user to a group or configuring default AAA attribute values for the SSID the user will access, click Finish.

7In the attribute row you want to configure, click the Attribute Value column.

See Table 22 on page 293 for a description of user attributes and their values.

8Type the new attribute value in lowercase characters. ACL names are case-sensitive.
