ProSafe Gigabit Quad WAN SSL VPN Firewall SRX5308
Configure User Accounts
When you create a user account, you need to assign the user to a user group. When you
create a group, you need to assign the group to a domain that specifies the authentication
method. Therefore, you should first create any domains, then groups, and then user
accounts.
You can create different types of user accounts by applying predefined user types:
• Administrator. A user who has full access and the capacity to change the VPN firewall
configuration (that is, read/write access).
• SSL VPN User. A user who can only log in to the SSL VPN portal.
• IPSEC VPN User. A user who can only make an IPSec VPN connection through a
NETGEAR ProSafe VPN Client, and only when the XAUTH feature is enabled (see
Configure Extended Authentication (XAUTH) on page 174).
• Guest user. A user who can only view the VPN firewall configuration (that is, read-only
access).
 To create an individual user account:
1. Select Users > Users. The Users screen displays. The following figure shows the VPN
firewall’s default users—admin and guest—and, as an example, another user in the List
of Users table.
Figure 140.
The List of Users table displays the users with the following fields:
• Check box. Allows you to select the user in the table.
• Name. The name of the user. If the user name is appended by an asterisk, the user is
a default user that came preconfigured with the VPN firewall and cannot be deleted.
• Group. The group to which the user is assigned.
• Type. The type of access credentials that are assigned to the user.
• Authentication Domain. The authentication domain to which the user is assigned.
• Action. The Edit table button, which provides access to the Edit User screen; the
Policies table button, which provides access to the policy screens.
