The guest account is active only for the period between the two times. To
alter the times, follow these steps:
a. In the Start Date & Time field, enter the date and time at which this
account is enabled.
Enter the date in this format, in which MM is the number of the month,
DD is the date, and YYYY is the year:
MM/DD/YYYY
After the date, enter a hyphen (-) and the time in this format, in which
HH is the hour in the 24-hour clock and MM is the minutes:
HH:MM
For example, enter:
02/17/2007-08:00
By default, the account’s start date and time is the current time.
b. In the Expiry Date & Time field, enter the date and time at which this
account is disabled.
Use the same format as for the Start Date and Time field. Of course, the
expiry time must be later than the start time.
After the account expires, it may remain listed in the Network Setup >
Local RADIUS Server > Users screen. The Wireless Edge Services xl
Module automatically clears out expired accounts every 24 hours. In
the meantime, however, no one can use the expired account to
connect.
7. In the Available Groups section, which lists all groups configured for this
type of user, select a group and click the Add button. The group enters the
Configured Groups section.
For example, in Figure 11-6, the user is a normal user (the Guest User box
is not checked), so the normal groups are displayed.
8. You can repeat step 6 and assign the user to multiple groups. However, it
is recommended that you assign the user to one group only.
Only assign a user to more than one group when the groups allow access
at mutually exclusive times. The policy configured for the group that
currently allows access takes effect.
For example, you could create a Weekdays group and a Weekend group
and assign the groups to different VLANs. A user that is a member of both
groups would be placed in the Weekdays VLAN on Friday, but in the
Weekend VLAN when she logs in on Saturday.
