3com 3CRWX120695A WXR100 User Manual

To create a named user:

1 Access the Create Named User wizard:

a Select the Configuration tool bar option.

b In the Organizer panel, click the plus sign next to the WX switch. 

c Click the plus sign next to AAA.

d Select Local User Database.

e In the Task List panel, select Named User. 

2 In the Name box, type the name of the user (1 to 60 alphanumeric 

characters, with no spaces or tabs). 

3 In the Password box, type the password for the user (1 to 80 

alphanumeric characters, with no spaces or tabs). You must specify a 
password if you want the password to be encrypted in the configuration 
file.

4 In the User Group list, select a user group to assign the user to, if the 

group is already configured. 

You do not need to assign a user to a user group. If you do select a user 
group, you only need to specify a password for the user. All other 
attributes are obtained from the user group.

5 To set authorization attributes for the user, click Next and go to step 6. 

6 In the VLAN Name box, select or type the name of the VLAN that the user 

belongs to (1 to 16 alphanumeric characters, with no spaces or tabs). The 
WX switch will authorize the user for that VLAN. For more information on 
VLANs, see “Viewing and Configuring VLANs” on page 206.

If the user requires administrative access only, you do not need to specify 
a VLAN.

Otherwise, if you plan to set authorization attributes in another way, such 
as adding the user to a group or configuring default AAA attribute values 
for the SSID the user will access, click Finish.

7 In the attribute row you want to configure, click the Attribute Value 

column.

See Table 22 on page 293 for a description of user attributes and their 
values.

8 Type the new attribute value in lowercase characters. ACL names are 

case-sensitive.
