Basic User Setup Options This section presents the basic activities you perform when configuring a new
user. At its most basic level, configuring a new user requires only three steps, as

•Specify a name
•Specify either a method for remote password authentication or, for
authentication via the CiscoSecure user database, a password
•Submit the information
