Adding a Local User

To create a new local user

  1. Navigate to the Users > Local Users page and click Add User. The Add Local User window is displayed.
  2. In the Add Local User window, enter the username for the user in the User Name field. This is the name the user enters to log in to the Secure Mobile Access user portal.
  3. Select the name of the domain to which the user belongs in the Domain drop-down menu.
  4. Select the name of the group to which the user belongs in the Group drop-down menu.
  5. Type the user password in the Password field.
  6. Retype the password in the Confirm Password field to verify the password. The password of imported local users are set to 'password' by default, and changing password is required for next login.
  7. Optionally, force a user in the Local User Database to change their password at set intervals or the next time they login. To force a user to change their password at set intervals, type the expiration interval in the Passwords expire in x days field.

  8. If you set a password expiration interval, type the number of days before expiration that users should receive notifications in the Show warning x days before password expiration field.

    When configured and a password is expiring, a notification is displayed on the user’s Virtual Office page or the Administrator’s management console identifying the number of days before their password expires. Notifications also include a link to a screen where the password can be changed.

  9. Optionally, use Require password change on next logon to force a user to change their password the next time they log in by selecting Use Domain Setting or Enabled. Selecting Use Domain Setting uses the setting configured on the Portals > Domains page.
  10. With the Account expires end of setting, you can set an expiration date with a pull-down calendar. No setting indicates the account never expires.
  11. From the User Type drop-down menu, select a user type option. The available user types are User, Administrator, or Read-only Administrator.
  12. Click Accept to update the configuration. After the user has been added, the new user is displayed on the Local Users window.
