Allowed groups

Configure groups that are allowed to sign in. Users can configure maximum of 32 groups and group lists are limited to 255 bytes.

The order in which the membership attribute is received from the LDAP server determines how a user is associated with the configured (allowed) groups. To match the user, the first group in the list received from the LDAP server that matches any of the configured groups is used.

Any user who is a member of more than one group can obtain resources from either group, depending on the order of the LDAP server's response. To ensure that the user is assigned the intended resource with certainty, it is recommended that the user belong to only one group.

To configure allowed groups:

2. Enter a group name.

  If RADIUS servers fail to respond or return a reject response, try local authentication, because it is explicitly configured in the authentication order.

Order 2
