Configuring User Groups

After configuring a user group, you can easily grant the same access rights to everyone in the group. To configure a group, you create the group and bind users to the group. You can bind each user account to more than one group. Binding user accounts to multiple groups may allow more flexibility when applying command policies.

To create a user group by using the NetScaler command line
