Managing users

Users are added to list, depending on your scenario:

• When you upgrade from an earlier release, existing users are automatically migrated to CES.
  • When the Require administrative password checkbox is selected in CES for earlier CES or iStrobe installations, the current release is the internal authentication mode. The system creates a version 18.2.1 CES user called CESAdmin or iStrobeAdmin with the password that was defined in the earlier release.
  • When the Require user login option is selected in the earlier iStrobe installation, the current release is placed in the internal authentication mode. You must define a password for the user ID when you upgrade to version 12.1.
• When you enable the LDAP, Kerberos, or Client Certificates authentication mode on the Security tab, authenticated users are automatically added to the list and created in CES. They inherit the permissions of any groups that have Automatically assign users enabled during group creation. For more information, see Adding-a-security-group.
• When you enable the Internal authentication mode on the Security tab and select Allow new users to self-register, users can register themselves and are added to the list.
• When you manually add users to the list; for more information, see Adding-a-user.

On the Users tab, you can view a list of configured users with details for each such as their name, the email address associated with that user, the groups to which the user is assigned, and the individual roles assigned to that user.

On the UI, you can move a column, refresh the table, delete one or more row entries, search, filter, and sort the values in the table, and choose how many records you want to view in the table. For more information about these actions, see Common-UI-actions.
