Globs; User Globs - D-Link DWS-1008 Cli Reference Manual

Name "globbing" is a way of using a wildcard pattern to expand a single element into a list of elements
that match the pattern. MSS accepts user globs, MAC address globs, and VLAN globs. The order in
which globs appear in the configuration is important, because once a glob is matched, processing stops
on the list of globs
A user glob is shorthand method for matching an authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA)
command to either a single user or a set of users.
A user glob can be up to 80 characters long and cannot contain spaces or tabs. The double-asterisk (**)
wildcard characters with no delimiter characters match all usernames. The single-asterisk (*) wildcard
character matches any number of characters up to, but not including, a delimiter character in the glob.
Valid user glob delimiter characters are the at (@) sign and the period (.).
For example, the following globs identify the following users:
User Glob
jose@example.com
*@example.com
*@marketing.example.com
* .*@marketing.example.com
*
EXAMPLE\*
EXAMPLE\*.*
