Adding Users to the Internal Database

You can create entries in an internal database that can be used to authenticate users. The internal database contains a list of users along with the password for each user. When you configure the WFS709TP as the primary server, user information in incoming authentication requests is checked against the internal database.

To add a user to the internal database:

1.Collect the following information required for internal database entries (Table 6-2).
