Chapter 36: Managing Guest Services and
Guest Accounts
Guest accounts are temporary accounts set up for users to log into your network.
You can create these accounts manually, as needed or generate them in batches. SonicOS includes
profiles you can configure in advance to automate configuring guest accounts when you generate
them.
Guest accounts are typically limited to a pre-determined life-span. After their life span, by default, the
accounts are removed.
Users > Guest Services
Guest Services determine the limits and configuration of the guest accounts. The Users > Guest
services page displays a list of Guest Profiles. Guest profiles determine the configuration of guest
accounts when they are generated. In the Users > Guest Services page, you can add, delete, and
configure Guest Profiles. In addition, you can determine if all users who log in to the security
appliance see a user login window that displays the amount of time remaining in their current login
session.
