Table 49 Add an Authentication Server — Local fields

Field	Description
Index	Specifies an integer in the range 1 to 63 that uniquely
	identifies the authentication method on the Nortel
	SNAS 4050.
Name	Specifies a name for the authentication method, as a
	mnemonic aid.
	Future releases of the Nortel SNAS 4050 software will
	allow you to reference this name in a client filter, so
	authentication to this server becomes a condition for
	access rights for a group.
Display Name	Specifies a name for the method, to display in the Login
	Service list box on the portal login page, together with the
	names of other authentication services available.
User Name	Specifies a unique user login name. This item creates the
	first entry in the local database. To fully populate the
	database, add more users later (see “Populating the
	database” on page 301).
	There are no restrictions on the Nortel SNAS 4050
	regarding acceptable user names. However, if you want the
	user name in the local database to mirror the Windows
	login name, observe Windows username conventions (for
	example, keep the length to no more than 32 characters).
User Password	Specifies the password that applies to the user.
Confirm	Confirms the password specified for the user.
Change User Group	Specifies which group the user belongs to. All groups in the
	Nortel SNAS 4050 domain are presented in the list.
