User and Group Management

The N299 has built-in user database that allows administrators to manage user access using different group policies. From the Accounts menu, you can create, modify, and delete users, and assign them to groups that you designate.

Local User Configuration

From the Accounts menu, choose the Users item, and the Local User Configuration screen appears. This screen allows you to Add, Modify, and Delete local users.

You can quickly find a particular user name by clicking one of the letter groupings at the top of the window. For example, to find a user name beginning with the letter M, click the MNO user group, and the user names beginning with M, N, or O will be listed. To see all names, click ALL.
