13.3.2 Group Names
Enter a group name from 1 to 32 characters. The first character must be
alphabetical (case insensitive, [A-Z a-z]); numeric characters are not allowed as
the first character.
The group name can only contain the following characters:
• Alphanumeric A-z 0-9. Unicode usernames are supported with CIFS logins, but
not FTP or web configurator logins.
•Spaces
• _ [underscores]
•. [periods]
•- [dashes]
Other limitations on group names are:
• All leading and trailing spaces are removed automatically.
• Multiple spaces within names are converted to a single space.
• Group names are case insensitive. The group name cannot be the same (no
matter the letter case) as an existing group. For example, if a group exists with
the name 'FAMILY', you cannot create a group named 'family'.
• The group name cannot be the same as a system group name such as
EVERYONE nor be the same as an existing group. Other reserved groups
names that are not allowed are:
• nobody
• root
•everyone
