CHAPTER 37
User/Group
This chapter describes how to set up user accounts, user groups, and user settings for the UAG. You
can also set up rules that control when users have to log in to the UAG before the UAG routes traffic
for them (see Chapter 24 on page 142).
37.1 User Account Overview
A user account defines the privileges of a user logged into the UAG. User accounts are used in
firewall rules, in addition to controlling access to configuration and services in the UAG.
37.1.1 User Types
There are the types of user accounts the UAG uses.
Note: The default admin account is always authenticated locally, regardless of the
authentication method setting. (See Chapter 42 on page 221 for more information
about authentication methods.)
