The Online User Details page appears.
Online user details
Account Name—Name of the account.
Username—Real name of the online user.
Login Name—Username sent by the device to TAM. It is not the username that a device user
entered when logging in to the device. Redundant information exists in the login name. TA M
excludes the redundant information according to predefined rules, and then matches the
simplified login name against the account name and authenticates the device user. Assume the
username a device user entered at login is HP\Jack001. The user is required to use domain opt
for authentication and the TACACS+ scheme in domain opt authentication requires that the
username carry domain, so the username that the device sends to TAM is HP\Jack001@opt.
TAM simplifies the login name to Jack001 according to predefined rules and matches Jack001
against the account name in TAM. The rules for excluding redundant information in a login
name are configured in system parameter configuration. For more information, see
"Configuring system parameters."
Device User Group—Device user group to which the online user belongs.
Authorization Policy—Authorization policy that is being used by the online user.
Device IP—IP address of the device to which the online user logs in.
User IP Address—IP address of the online user.
Terminal—Terminal that the online user uses to log in to the device. For example, when a user
Telnets to the device, this field displays VTY 0 through VTY 15. When a user logs in to the
device through the console port, this field displays AUX 0, AUX 1, and so on.
Login Time—Time when the online user logs in to the device, in the format of YYYY-MM-DD
hh:mm:ss.
Online Duration (sec.)—Online duration of the user. If the device where the user logs in sends
a Watchdog packet to TAM, TAM updates the online duration of the user accordingly. If the
device does not support sending Watchdog packets to TAM or sending Watchdog packets is
disabled, the online duration of the user is always 0.

Clearing online user information
A device user that has logged out of the device but is displayed as online in TAM is called a halted user.
Halted users can appear in the following cases:
• The device is powered off and rebooted. All online users log out, but the device does not send
offline requests to TAM.
• When a device user logs out, the offline request sent by the device to TAM is lost.
TAM provides the following methods to clear online information about halted users:
• TAM automatically clears the online information about a halted user when the duration that the user
is halted exceeds the predefined time.
The time is controlled by the system parameter Aging Time. For more information about
configuring system parameters, see "Configuring system parameters." When you add or modify a
device in TAM, if you select Not Supported for the Watchdog field, TAM cannot automatically
clear online users that log in to the device. For how to configure a device, see "Configuring a
device."
