DESCRIPTION

Name

Specify a descriptive name for identification purposes.

 

You may use 1-31 alphanumeric characters, underscores(_), or dashes (-), but the

 

first character cannot be a number. This value is case-sensitive. For example,

 

“My_Device”.

 

 

Method List

Select a server object from the drop-down list box. You can create a server object in

 

the AAA Server screen (see Chapter 39 on page 625 for more information).

 

The ZyWALL authenticates the users using the databases (in the local user

 

database or the external authentication server) in the order they appear in this

 

screen.

 

If two accounts with the same username exist on two authentication servers you

 

specify, the ZyWALL does not continue the search on the second authentication

 

server when you enter the username and password that doesn’t match the one on

 

the first authentication server.
