Overview of the User Database

For a user to gain access to the 833IS, the user must be defined to the system. You
can do this in a number of different ways:
833IS Internal Database
You can define the user in the internal database of the 833IS. The internal database
lets you set up the following for each user:
■User ID.
■User password.
■Administration privileges.
■Fixed MAC address, if required.
■User IP address, if required.
■Inactivity time-out.
■Amount of connect time.
■Callback.
■Protocols
■Compression
■Packet Filtering
■Lan To Lan
Shared User Database
Access to an 833IS can be controlled by using the Internal Database that is
configured in a Remote 833IS server.
