Viewing and Configuring Users in the Local Database

The WSS contains a local database that can store user information for a Nortel WLAN 2300 System. You can use the
local database to create users and authenticate them, or you can use the local database in conjunction with a RADIUS
server. For example, although you might use a RADIUS server to manage most users, you could define IT staff as users
in the local database in the event that the RADIUS server is unavailable.
