156 Configuring groups and profiles
Configuring groups
To create and configure a group, use the following command:
/cfg/doamin #/aaa/group <group ID>
where
group ID is an integer in the range 1 to 1023 that
uniquely identifies the group in the Nortel
SNAS domain.
When you first create the group, you must enter the group ID. After you
have created the group, you can use either the ID or the name to access
the group for configuration.
When you first create the group, you are prompted to enter the following
parameters:
• group name—a string that uniquely identifies the group on the Nortel
SNAS. The maximum length of the string is 255 characters. After
you have defined a name for the group, you can use either the group
name or the group ID to access the Group menu. The group name
must match a group name used by the authentication services. For
more information, see
Table 22 "Group names in the Nortel SNAS and
authentication services" (page 153) .
•
number of sessions—the maximum number of simultaneous portal or
Nortel SNAS sessions allowed for each member of the group. The
default is 0 (unlimited). You can later modify the number of sessions by
using the
restrict command on the Group menu.
