Certificate tab

This tab will allow you to manage the user’s x509 certificate.

Since the PKI does not have a certification authority by default, you will need to create one in order to manage user’s certificates: go to the Objects module > Certificates and PKI > Add button > Add a root authority.

This certificate will be useful in two cases: SSL authentication and VPN access to the firewall with a mobile IPsec client. This certificate can also be used by other applications.

Member of these groups tab

This tab allows including the user in one or several groups:

  1. Click the Add button.
    A new line will appear at the top of the table.
  2. Select the arrow to the right of the field.
    A drop-down menu will display the list of existing groups.
  3. Click on the group of your choice.
    It will be added to your table.

To remove a group, select it and click on Delete.

A user attached to several departments, for example, may belong to many different groups. The maximum number is 50 groups per user.
