XYGATE User Authentication Reference Manual

XYPRO Technology Corporation 247 Proprietary and Confidential
Appendix B: The UAACL File
XYGATEUA can be configured in the UAACL file to restrict user group logon times and
rules. This file specifies user groups and what logon rules will be applied to those
differing groups of users. There are three primary entities defined in the UAACL File:
ACLGroups Classifies profiles of groups.
TIMEGroups Configures which users can logon what day and time of the week.
UAGroups Configure a group of userids that will share the same authentication
rules.
These primary entities must appear in the UACONF file in the order shown above. The
ACLGroups must be defined at the top of the file, followed by the TIMEGroups and
then the UAGroups.
Important! The UAACL file is evaluated in a top-to-bottom order. Put the most
specific rules at the top of the file and the most general rules at the bottom of the file
because if a match is found, the search stops.
Also note that UAACL keyword entries take precedence over the same keyword in the
UACONF file described in Appendix A: starting on page 201.
And before implementing your rules into production, you should test them using What-
if Testing as described in Chapter 16 starting on page 137.
