If Radius Only is selected from the list, your HAFM appliance checks the Radius information to see

whether or not any Radius server has been specified. If not, the application prevents the user from

selecting this option and a message is displayed.
If the Radius server is already set, the security administrator is alerted that the user information on

the Radius server needs to be entered manually, because that information cannot be populated

automatically by the HAFM appliance.

Assigning users to a switch

For the user role, there are two options available from a list, Administrator and Operator. The ID of

the user is

Administrator

and the password is

password

. The third and fourth column indicate

whether a user has access to the switch through the HAFM Basic or Telnet interface, or through both

of them.
A default user is set up in the switch user base. The ID of the user is

Administrator

and the

password is

password

. There is one default user that is displayed in the table, with both Telnet and

HAFM Basic (EWS) check boxes selected.

User ID must be unique. If you add an ID that exists in the system, it will be rejected. The

maximum length of password is 24 characters.

3.

Click OK.

4.

Assign a role to a user to be either Administrator or Operator.
By default, all new users are set up with an Administrator’s privilege. This can be changed by

clicking the list under the Role column and selecting another option.

The security administrator can delete users from the switch user database. There must be at least one

user with Administrator privilege for Telnet and HAFM Basic. A message is displayed if you try to

delete the last user with Administrator privileges.
If a user is removed from the table, the user cannot access the switch through the Telnet or HAFM

Basic interface. The removed user who is currently accessing a live session with the switch can

continue working on the switch until logging out.
