Cisco Cisco Web Security Appliance S670 Betriebsanweisung

Any user you define can log into the appliance using any method, such as logging into the web interface 
or using SSH.

You can define any number users locally on the Web Security appliance. You can add, edit, and delete 
local users. Consider the following rules when defining local users:

User names can contain lowercase letters, numbers, and the dash ( - ) character. 

User names cannot start with a dash. 

User names cannot be greater than 16 characters.

Passwords must contain at least 6 characters.

User names cannot be special names that are reserved by the system, such as “operator” or “root.”

If you also use external authentication, user names should not duplicate externally-authenticated 
user names.

You can define different preferences, such as language support, for local users. For more information,
