Configuring Regular Users —Wizard
138 AlterPath OnBoard Administrator’s Guide
Selecting PPP or PPTP for the user causes the two additional fields to display
for setting the PPP or PPTP password, as shown in the following screen
example:
Caution! The caution at the top of the screen shown in Figure 4-22 is a
reminder that configuring device management actions for a user gives the user
the same device management authorizations for all configured devices. For
example, giving the user the “Native IP” authorization on this screen gives the
user native IP access to all configured devices. To configure a user to have
more or fewer device management authorizations on one device than on
another, the administrative user can use the Config → Users and Groups
Screen.”
Table 1-5 describes the parameters that can be set on the screens that appear
when the “Add a regular user” option is selected.
