Cisco Systems 4.2 manual Configuring Multiple UserLists, set Group Default, save, reload

Chapter 5 Customizing Your Configuration

Configuring Multiple UserLists

Step 6 Use the set command to set the user’s group membership to the name of that group. The following example sets beth’s group membership to the Default group.

set Group Default

Step 7 Use the save command to save your changes:

save

Step 8 Use the reload command to reload the server:

reload

Note To be able to save your changes and reload the server after following this example, you must have an actual script. Cisco AR displays a warning message when it detects missing configuration objects.

Configuring Multiple UserLists

The basic site contains a single userlist, Default, and uses group membership to determine the type of Service to provide each user. When all users are in the same UserList, each username must be unique.

You can, however, group your user community by department or location, and use separate UserLists to distinguish amongst them. In this case, the users names must be unique only within each UserList. Thus, you can allow a user Jane in the North UserList as well as one in the South UserList.

When you have more than one UserList, you must have an incoming script that Cisco AR can run in response to requests. The script chooses the authentication and/or authorization Service, and the Service specifies the actual UserList (Figure 5-1).
