Chapter 6: User Management95User Group ListUser groups are used with local and remote authentication (via RADIUSor LDAP/LDAPS). It is a good idea to define user groups before creatingindividual users since, when you add a user, you must assign that userto an existing user group.The User Group List page displays a list of all user groups, which can besorted in ascending or descending order by clicking on the Group Namecolumn heading. From the User Group List page, you can also add,modify, or delete user groups.To list the user groups:• Choose User Management > User Group List. The User Group Listpage opens.Relationship Between Users and GroupsUsers belong to a group and groups have privileges. Organizing thevarious users of your Dominion KX II into groups saves time by allowingyou to manage permissions for all users in a group at once, instead ofmanaging permissions on a user-by-user basis.You may also choose not to associate specific users with groups. In thiscase, you can classify the user as “Individual.”Upon successful authentication, the device uses group information todetermine the user's permissions, such as which server ports areaccessible, whether rebooting the device is allowed, and other features.Adding a New User GroupTo add a new user group:1. Open the Group page by selecting User Management > Add NewUser Group or clicking the Add button from the User Group Listpage.
