Assigning attributes to users and groups

You can assign authorization attributes to individual users or groups of users. Use any of the following
commands to assign an attribute to a user or group in the local WSS database and specify its value:
set user username attr attribute-name value
set usergroup group-name attr attribute-name valu e
set mac-user mac-addr attr attribute-name value
set mac-usergroup group-name attr attribute-name value
If attributes are configured for a user and also for the group the user is in, the attributes assigned to the indi-
vidual user take precedence for that user. For example, if the start-date attribute configured for a user is sooner
than the start-date configured for the user group the user is in, the user’s network access can begin as soon as
the user start-date. The user does not need to wait for the user group’s start date.
To change the value of an authorization attribute, reenter the command with the new value.
To assign an authorization attribute to a user’s configuration on a RADIUS server, see the documentation for
your RADIUS server.
