This value is read-only within the Groups tab. Click

Edit

to modify the access assignments of an existing

group or click

Add

to create a new group with unique access assignments.

Name

Displays the unique name assigned to each group. The group name should be indicative of
the user population within and their shared activity within the switch managed network.

Guest Group

Displays whether a specific group has been defined as a guest group (with a red X) or has
been configured as permanent group. Guest users have temporary Radius server access.

VLAN ID

Display the VLAN ID(s) used by each group listed. The VLAN ID is representative of the
shared SSID each group member (user) employs to interoperate with one another within the
switch managed network (once authenticated by the local Radius server).

Time of Access Start

Displays the time each group was (will be) authenticated to interoperate within the switch
managed network. Each user within the group will be authenticated with the local Radius
server. Those group members successfully authenticated are allowed access to the switch
managed network using the restrictions defined for the group.

Time of Access End

Displays the time each group’s user base will loose access privileges within the switch
managed network. After this time, users within this group will not be authenticated by the
local Radius server. However, if a user is part of a different group that has not exceeded their
access end interval, then the user may still interoperate with the switch (remain
authenticated) as part of that group.
