14: User Authentication
EMG™ Edge Management Gateway User Guide 297
NIS
The system administrator can configure the EMG to use NIS to authenticate users attempting to
log in to the EMG unit through the Web, SSH, Telnet, or the console port. If NIS does not provide
port permissions, you can use this page to grant device port access to users who are
authenticated through NIS.
All NIS users are members of a group that has predefined user rights associated with it. You can
assign additional user rights that are not defined by the group.
To configure the EMG unit to use NIS to authenticate users:
1. Click the User Authentication tab and select the NIS option.
