Adding a User

To add a new user:
Click Administration > User Accounts in the navigation window.
The User Account Table displays the currently configured users.
Click Add.
Enter a user name between 1 to 32 alphanumeric characters. Only numbers 0-9
and letters a-z (upper or lower) are allowed for user names. Creating a username
default is not allowed.
Enter a password between 1 and 64 characters (depending upon the
Strength setting) and confirm the password. (The characters ', ", %, and ? are not
supported.)
As you enter a password, the number and color of vertical bars changes to
indicate the password strength, as follows:
• Red—The password fails to meet the minimum complexity requirements.
The text Below Minimum displays to the right of the meter.
• Orange—The password meets the minimum complexity requirements but
the password strength is weak. The text Weak displays to the right of the
meter.
Green—The password is strong. The text Strong displays to the right of the
•
meter.
The Apply button will not be available until the strength meter is orange and the
password is confirmed.
When adding a user, you can temporarily disable the password strength check
feature to allow configuring a password that does not meet the strength check
criteria. Click Disable Password Strength Enforcement and then click OK when
the warning displays.
To disable the password strength check feature for all users, or to configure its
characteristics, use the Password Strength page.
Click Apply and then click Close. Your changes are saved to the Running
Configuration.
