Domain-based user management

A NAS manages users based on Internet service provider (ISP) domains. On a NAS, each user belongs
to one ISP domain. A NAS determines the ISP domain a user belongs to by the username entered by the
user at login, as shown in
Figure 7 Determine the ISP domain of a user by the username
The authentication, authorization, and accounting of a user depends on the AAA methods configured for
the domain that the user belongs to. If no specific AAA methods are configured for the domain, the
default methods are used. By default, a domain uses local authentication, local authorization, and local
accounting.
AAA allows you to manage users based on their access types:
LAN users—Users on a LAN who must pass 802.1X or MAC address authentication to access the
•
network.
• Login users—Users who want to log in to the switch, including SSH users, Telnet users, web users,
FTP users, and terminal users.
