82Managing Users and Groups

>>User# add

Name of user to add: cert_admin (maximum 255 characters, no spaces)

4Assign the new user to a user group.

You can only assign a user to a group in which you yourself are a member. When this criteria is met, users can be assigned to one or more of the following groups:

oper

admin

certadmin

tunnelguard

By default, the admin user is a member of all preceding groups, and can therefore assign a new or existing user to any of these groups. The group assignment of a user dictates the user rights and access levels to the system.

>>User# edit cert_admin

>>User cert_admin# groups/add

Enter group name: certadmin

5Verify and apply the group assignment.

When typing the list command, the current and pending group assignment of the user being edited is listed by index number and group name. Because the cert_admin user is a new user, the current group assignment listed by Old: is empty.

>> Groups# list

Old:

Pending:

1:certadmin >> Groups# apply

Changes applied successfully.

6Define a login password for the user.

When the user logs in to the NVG cluster the first time, the user will be prompted for the password you define in this step. When successfully logged in, the user can change his or her own password. The login password is case sensitive and can contain spaces.
