ZyWALL (ZLD) CLI Reference Guide 229
CHAPTER 26
User/Group
This chapter describes how to set up user accounts, user groups, and user settings for the ZyWALL.
You can also set up rules that control when users have to log in to the ZyWALL before the ZyWALL
routes traffic for them.
26.1 User Account Overview
A user account defines the privileges of a user logged into the ZyWALL. User accounts are used in
firewall rules and application patrol, in addition to controlling access to configuration and services in
the ZyWALL.
26.1.1 User Types
There are the types of user accounts the ZyWALL uses.
Note: The default admin account is always authenticated locally, regardless of the
authentication method setting. (See Chapter 31 on page 255 for more information
about authentication methods.)
