User Type These are the kinds of user account the ZyWALL supports.
• admin - this user can look at and change the configuration
of the ZyWALL
• limited-admin - this user can look at the configuration of
the ZyWALL but not to change it
• user - this user has access to the ZyWALL’s services but
cannot look at the configuration
• guest - this user has access to the ZyWALL’s services but
cannot look at the configuration
• ext-user - this user account is maintained in a remote
server, such as RADIUS or LDAP. See Ext-User Accounts on
page 584 for more information about this type.
• ext-group-user - this user account is maintained in a
remote server, such as RADIUS or LDAP. See Ext-Group-
User Accounts on page 585 for more information about this
type.
Lease Time This is the default lease time in minutes for each type of user
account. It defines the number of minutes the user has to
renew the current session before the user is logged out.
Admin users renew the session every time the main screen
refreshes in the Web Configurator. Access users can renew the
session by clicking the Renew button on their screen. If you
allow access users to renew time automatically (see Section
35.4 on page 591), the users can select this check box on their
screen as well. In this case, the session is automatically
renewed before the lease time expires.
Reauthentication
Time
This is the default reauthentication time in minutes for each
type of user account. It defines the number of minutes the
user can be logged into the ZyWALL in one session before
having to log in again. Unlike Lease Time, the user has no
opportunity to renew the session without logging out.
Miscellaneous Settings
Allow renewing lease
time automatically
Select this check box if access users can renew lease time
automatically, as well as manually, simply by selecting the
Updating lease time automatically check box on their
screen.
Enable user idle
detection
This is applicable for access users.
Select this check box if you want the ZyWALL to monitor how
long each access user is logged in and idle (in other words,
there is no traffic for this access user). The ZyWALL
automatically logs out the access user once the User idle
timeout has been reached.
User idle timeout This is applicable for access users.
This field is effective when Enable user idle detection is
checked. Type the number of minutes each access user can be
logged in and idle before the ZyWALL automatically logs out
the access user.
