Editing User Settings
To edit a user’s attributes, navigate to the
Users
>
Local Users
window and click the Configure icon next to the
user whose settings you want to configure. The
Edit User Settings
window displays.
The
Edit Local User
page has several tabs as described in the following table:
If the user authenticates to an external authentication server, then the
User Type
and
Password
fields are not
shown. The password field is not configurable because the authentication server validates the password. The
user type is not configurable because the SMA/SRA appliance only allows users that authenticate to the internal
user database to have administrative privileges. Also, the user type
External
is used to identify the local user
instances that are auto-created to correspond to externally authenticating users.
TIP:
If the selected group is in a domain that uses external authentication, such as Active Directory,
RADIUS, or LDAP, then the
Add User
window closes and the new user is added to the
Local Users
list.
NOTE:
Entering RADIUS, LDAP, and Active Directory user names is only necessary if you wish to
define specific policies or bookmarks per user. If users are not defined in the SMA/SRA appliance,
then global policies and bookmarks applies to users authenticating to an external authentication
server. When working with external (non-LocalDomain) users, a local user entity must exist so that
any user-created (personal) bookmarks can be stored within the Secure Mobile Access
configuration files. Bookmarks must be stored on the SMA/SRA appliance because LDAP and
RADIUS external domains do not provide a direct facility to store such information as bookmarks.
Rather than requiring administrators to manually create local users for external domain users
wishing to use personal bookmarks, the SMA/SRA appliance automatically creates a corresponding
local user entity when an external domain user creates a personal bookmark so that it might store
the bookmark information.
