• Log off the EDA to prevent another user from accessing the current users network privileges.
• Switch EDA users to quickly logoff the EDA and allow another user to log into the EDA.
No User Logged In
If no user is logged into the EDA, launch the login dialog box and log in to access user profiles.
The Login dialog box varies if it is:
• Launched by WCS, because the service is connecting to a new profile that needs credentials.
• Launched by WCS, because the service is trying to verify the credentials due to credential caching rules.
• Launched by a user, when a user is logged in.
• Launched by a user, when no user is logged in.
Device Username Field
The device username is a high level username used to link different network credentials to the same person as
explained above. The Device Username field is only writable when there is no user logged on. Otherwise it is
static text. The Device Username has a maximum length defined in the WCSAPI.
Tapping OK sends the credentials though WCS API. If there are no credentials entered, a dialog box displays
informing the user which field was not entered.
The Log Off button only displays when a user is already logged on. When the Log Off button is tapped, the
user is prompted with three options: Log Off, Switch Users, and Cancel. Switching users logs off the current
user and re-initialize the login dialog box to be displayed for when there is no user logged on. Logging off logs

Field Description
Wireless Profile Field When launching the login application, the Wireless Profile field has available all
the wireless profiles that require credentials. This includes profiles that use EAP
TLS, PEAP, LEAP, and EAP-TTLS.
Profile Status Icon The profile status icon (next to the profile name) shows one of the following
states:
The selected profile is cancelled.
The selected profile is enabled but is not the current profile.
The profile is the current profile (always the case for WCS Launched).
Network Username and
Password Fields
The Network Username and Network Password fields are used as credentials
for the profile selected in the Wireless Profile field. Currently these fields are
limited to 159 characters.
Mask Password
Checkbox
The Mask Password checkbox determines whether the password field is
masked (i.e., displays only the '*' character) or unmasked (i.e., displays the
entered text). Check the box to unmask the password. Uncheck the box to mask
the password (the default).
Status Field The status field displays status that is important to the login dialog. If the user
opens the dialog and needs to prompt for credentials for a particular profile at
this time, it can use the status field to let the user know that the network is held
up by the password dialog being open.
