Mapping Users to Groups

Once users have been created within the Users screen, their access privileges need to be
configured for inclusion to one, some or all of the groups also created within the Users screen.

To map users to groups for group authentication privileges:

1. If you are not already in the Users screen, select System Configuration -> User Authentication

-> User Database from the menu tree.

Existing users and groups display within their respective fields. If user or group requires
creation or modification, make your changes before you begin to map them.

2. Refer to the Users field and select the List of Groups column for the particular user you wish to

map to one or more groups.

The Users Group Setting screen displays with the groups available for user inclusion
displayed within the Available column.
