Local and external user accounts
You configure local user accounts and roles in "Security > Users".
When you create a local user account an external user account is generated automatically.
Local user accounts involve users each with a password for logging in on the device.
In the table "External User Accounts" a user is linked to a role. In this example the user
"Observer" is linked to the "user" role. The user is defined on a RADIUS server. The roll is
defined locally on the device. When a RADIUS server authenticates a user, the corresponding
group however is unknown or does not exist, the device checks whether or not there is an entry
for the user in the table "External User Accounts". If an entry exists, the user is logged in with
110
Access to device parameters via SNMP is not possible.
Access to device parameters is possible with SNMP versions 1, 2c or 3.
Access to device parameters is possible only with SNMP version 3.
The authentication must be made locally on the device.
The authentication must be handled via a RADIUS server.
The authentication is possible both with the users that exist on the device (user name
and password) and via a RADIUS server.
The user is first searched for in the local database. If the user does not exist there, a
RADIUS query is sent.
The authentication must be handled via a RADIUS server.
A local authentication is performed only when the RADIUS server cannot be reached in
the network.
