1. User ID identifies the name of the user.
2. Use User Name to enter the name of the user. Name can contain 1 to 31 alphanumeric
characters. User names once created cannot be changed/modified.
3. Set Edit Password to “Enable” only when you want to change the password. The default
value is “Disable”.
4. Use Password to enter a password for the user. The password length can be from 8 to 64
characters.
5. Use Confirm Password to enter the password for the user again.
6. Use Group to assign the user to at least one User Group. To assign a user to more than
one group, press the Ctrl key and click each group. New users are assigned to the 1-Default
user group by default.
7. Use Session Timeout to enter the number of seconds a user is permitted to remain
connected to the network. Once the Session Timeout value is reached, the user is logged
out automatically. A value of 0 means that the user does not have a Session Timeout limit.
The valid range is 0 to 86400 seconds and the default value is 0.
8. Use Idle Timeout to enable Logout once idle time-out is reached (seconds). If the attribute
is 0 or not present then use the value configured for the captive portal.
9. Use Max Bandwidth Down to specify the maximum rate (Rate in bits per seconds) at which
a client can receive data from the network. 0 indicates use global configuration (Range: 0 –
536870911 bps.)
