Defining User Access Permissions by Group
An external AAA server maintains the users and groups database used by the access point for access
permissions. Various kinds of access policies can be applied to each group. With this latest 2.0 version
access point firmware, individual groups can be associated with their own time-based access policy.
Each group’s policy has a user defined interval defining the days and hours access is permitted.
Authentication requests for users belonging to the group are honored only during these defined hourly
intervals.
Refer to the Access Policy screen to define WLAN access for the user group(s) defined within the Users
screen. Each group created within the Users screen displays in the Access Policy screen within the
groups column. Similarly, existing WLANs can be individually mapped to user groups by clicking the
WLANs button to the right of each group name. For more information on creating groups and users,
see “Managing the Local User Database” on page 224. For information on creating a new WLAN or
editing the properties of an existing WLAN, see “Creating/Editing Individual WLANs” on page 135.
