Managing Users and Groups
If you are using local authentication, you must type your name as it appears in the Firebox user list. If
you use Active Directory or another LDAP server for authentication through the Firebox X Edge, you
must include the domain name. For example, if a user authenticates using the local Firebox user list,he
or she types
jsmith. If the admin user authenticates with an LDAP authentication server through the
Edge, the administrator must type
MyCompany\jsmith.
When you authenticate with the Firebox X Edge and make an Internet connection, your user name
appears in the Active Sessions section of the Firebox Users page.
