Configuring Local User Settings
The following global settings can be configured for all local users on the Users > Local Users
page:
• Apply password constraints for all local users - Applies the password constraints that
are specified on the System > Administration page to all local users. For more information
on password constraints, see “Login Security Settings” on page 108.
Note This does not affect the default “admin” user account.
• Prune account upon expiration - For a user account that is configured with a limited
lifetime, selecting this checkbox causes the user account to be deleted after the lifetime
expires. Disable this checkbox to have the account simply be disabled after the lifetime
expires. The administrator can then re-enable the account by resetting the account lifetime.
Viewing, Editing and Deleting Local Users
You can view all the groups to which a user belongs on the Users > Local Users page. Click
on the expand icon next to a user to view the group memberships for that user.
The three columns to the right of the user’s name list the privileges for the user. The expanded
view displays the groups from which the user gets each privilege.
• Hover the mouse pointer over the comment icon in the VPN Access column to view the
network resources to which the user has VPN access.
