the Local User
Database
The WX switch contains a local database that can store user information
for a 3Com Mobility System. You can use the local database to create
users and authenticate them, or you can use the local database in
conjunction with a RADIUS server. For example, although you might use a
RADIUS server to manage most users, you could define IT staff as users in
the local database in the event that the RADIUS server is unavailable.
