Nortel Secure Network Access Switch 4050 User Guide
Deleting a user
To delete a user from the system, you must be a member of the admin group. By
default, only the admin user is a member of the admin group.
1 Log on to the Nortel SNAS 4050 cluster as the admin user.
2 Access the User Menu.
3 Specify the user name of the user you want to remove from the system
configuration.
In this example, the cert_admin user is removed from the system. To list all
users currently added to the system configuration, use the
list command.
4 Verify and apply the changes.
Note: Remember that when a user is deleted, that user’s group
assignment is also deleted. If you are deleting a user who is the sole
member of a group, none of the remaining users on the system can then
be added to that group. Existing users can only be added to a group by a
user who is already a member of that group. Before deleting a user, you
may therefore want to verify that the user is not the sole member of a
group.
