the local user account, the user cannot pass authentication. Binding attributes include the IP

address, access port, MAC address, and native VLAN. For more information about binding
attributes, see "

Configuring local user attributes

." Be cautious when deciding which binding

attributes to configure for a local user.

Authorization attributes
Authorization attributes indicate the rights that a user has after passing local authentication.
Authorization attributes include the ACL, PPP callback number, idle cut function, user level, user

role, user profile, VLAN, and FTP/SFTP work directory. For more information about authorization

attributes, see "

Configuring local user attributes

."

Every configurable authorization attribute has its definite application environments and purposes.
When configuring authorization attributes for a local user, consider which attributes are needed

and which are not. For example, for PPP users, you do not need to configure the work directory

attribute.
You can configure an authorization attribute in user group view or local user view, making the
attribute effective for all local users in the group or for only the local user. The setting of an

authorization attribute in local user view takes precedence over that in user group view.
