User Groups
window
A user is a person who uses the networking services provided by the
Sidewinder G2. A user group is a logical grouping of one or more users,
identified by a single name. You can also nest one or more user groups within
a user group.
Note: For basic information on users and user groups, see “Users and user
groups” on page 104.
To display the current users and user groups configured for your Sidewinder
G2, using the Admin Console select Policy Configuration > Rule Elements >
Users & User Groups. The following window appears.
This window displays the users and user groups currently configured in the
user database. In this window you can perform the following actions:

is the user name for the administrator account you defined during installation.
There will not be any user groups defined.
