select the checkbox next to their name.

user was logged off. This message contains the date and time the
log out occurred. Click OK to close the message.
Authentication Settings
Authentication is the process of verifying that a user is who he says he is.
Once a user is authenticated, the user's group is used to determine his
system and port permissions. The user's assigned privileges determine
what type of access is allowed. This is called authorization.
When the Dominion KX II is configured for remote authentication, the
external authentication server is used primarily for the purposes of
authentication, not authorization.
From the Authentication Settings page you can configure the type of
authentication used for access to your Dominion KX II.
Note: Even if you select remote authentication (LDAP/LDAPS or
RADIUS), local authentication is still used.
To configure authentication:
1. Choose User Management > Authentication Settings. The
Authentication Settings page opens.
