CHAPTER 62
Dynamic Guest Accounts
62.1 Dynamic Guest Accounts Overview
Dynamic guest accounts are guest accounts, but are created dynamically and stored in the Zyxel
Device’s local user database. A dynamic guest account has a dynamically-created user name and
password. A dynamic guest account user can access the Zyxel Device’s services only within a given
period of time and will become invalid after the expiration date/time.
There are three types of dynamic guest accounts depending on how they are created or
authenticated: billing-users, ua-users and trial-users.
billing-users are guest account created with the dynamic-guest generate command or the guest
manager account or an external printer and paid by cash or created and paid via the on-line payment
service.
ua-users are users that log in from the user agreement page.
trial-users are free guest accounts that are created with the dynamic-guest generate-freeuser
command or the Free Time function.
62.2 Dynamic-guest Commands
This table lists the dynamic-guest commands. You must use the configure terminal command to
enter the configuration mode before you can use these commands.
