2.When you have filled in the fields, click Add Account to add the account.

The new user is then displayed in "User Accounts". The user account is enabled by default when you first create it.

Note: A limit of 100 user accounts per access point is imposed by the Administration user interface. Network usage may impose a more practical limit, depending upon the demand from each user.

Editing a User Account

Once you have created a user account, it is displayed under "User Accounts" at the top of the User Management Administration Web page. To make modifications to an existing user account, first click the checkbox next to the username so that the box is checked.

Then, choose an action such as Edit, Enable, Disable, or Remove.

Enabling and Disabling User Accounts

A user account must be enabled for the user to log on as a client and use the access point.

You can enable or disable any user account. With this feature, you can maintain a set of user accounts and authorize or prevent users from accessing the network without having to remove or re-create accounts. This can come in handy in situations where users have an occasional need to access the network. For example, contractors who do work for your company on an intermittent but regular basis might need network access for 3 months at a time, then be off for 3 months, and back on for another assignment. You can enable and disable these user accounts as needed, and control access as appropriate.

Enabling a User Account

To enable a user account, click the checkbox next to the username and click Enable.
