Configuring local database authentication
You can configure the Nortel SNAS domain to use local databases for
portal (username/password) or MAC authentication. To configure the local
database method, perform the following steps:
Step Action
1 Create the Local database method (see “Adding the local
database authentication method” (page 201) ).
ATTENTION
If you ran the quick setup wizard during initial setup, Local database
authentication has been created with authentication ID = 1. The local
portal database contains one test user (
nha ), who belongs to a group
called nhauser .
2 Populate the database (see “Managing the local portal database”
(page 202) or “Managing the local MAC database” (page 206) ).
3 Save a backup copy of the database (see “Managing the
local portal database” (page 202) or “Managing the local MAC
database” (page 206) ).
4 Modify settings for the authentication method itself, if desired
(see
“Configuring authentication methods” (page 177) ).
