Static User Authentication

To view or modify the static users in the internal user database, click on Authentication in the Configuration Menu. The Authentication window displays. Scroll down until Static User Identification is displayed (see figure 18).

Static users consist of usernames and passwords entered into the access server’s internal users database. You can have up to 111 static users in the access server database.

You must have superuser-level access to make changes to the static users database.

The following sections describe each of the variables found in the Static User Identification section.
